    tire dressing suggestions

    Hi,
    Looking for a tire dressing that shines well and lasts.
    Trying to find a product that does not spray on the fenders when wet.
    I need to keep my expenses down.
    Thanks,

    Dp tire gel, cut 1:1 with water and spray it on. When cut it is very economical, it looks great and lasts for a good while.

    Pinnacle Black Onyx Tire Gel is the first dressing I ever tried and will probably remain a staple in my collection. To start with, it smells AMAZING haha which I know isn't very important but I definitely enjoy using it. But yes, it really lasts and it doesn't turn brown as the bottle truthfully states.


    Here's a tire dressed with Black Onyx 3 weeks after application. Still a good amount of shine and definitely black.

    While I think BO gel is an okay dressing I'm willing to be the car in that picture sat in a garage, saw very little driving and no rain or bad weather for those 3 weeks.

    I've tried and really like black onyx.

    But I guess I need to get a sample of DP tire gel! (Thanks Dubbin )

    My vote would be for Wolfgang Black Diamond.

    My first vote however, would be for Adams Super VRT although that's not sold here at AG.
