I just wanted post a review on the new Pinnacle Signature APC and Pinnacle Black Oynx Tire Dressing. The products were tested on my 2006 Dodge Ram. The tires are relatively new and are Cooper Zeon LTZ’s. I have not applied any type of silicone based tire dressing to them since purchasing. So far I have used Zaino Z16 and PB Bold and Bright. Thanks again to Nick for sending the products to me and allowing me to test them. Thanks also to Corey and Mike for the review format.
Product: Pinnacle Signature All Purpose Cleaner (APC)
Cost: $14.99
Product Description (from Autogeek website):
Pinnacle Signature All Purpose Cleaner can safely clean virtually any surface ranging from food stains on delicate leather to tar residue on paint. If it’s a dirty surface that can be cleaned, Pinnacle Signature All Purpose Cleaner will clean it better than anything else available. It is the pinnacle of all purpose cleaners.
Product: Pinnacle Black Onyx Tire Dressing
Cost: $19.99
Product Description (from Autogeek website):
Pinnacle Black Onyx Tire Dressing utilizes a water-based formula free of harsh solvents so it not only restores the deep, dark shine to your tires, it protects them too!
Application of Products and Directions:
1) I initially started by cleaning the tires with Pinnacle Signature mixed at a dilution of 5:1. The directions state it can be mixed at full strength, 5:1 for heavy duty cleaning, and 10:1 for light cleaning (interiors etc). I sprayed directly onto the direct and let it dwell for about 2 minutes and cleaned the tire with a Tuff Shine tire cleaning brush (love this thing).
2) Once the tires were cleaned and dryed I applied Pinnacle Black Onyx Tire Dressing with a foam app. I applied two coats since I like a slight gloss on my tires.
My thoughts and observations
1) Pinnacle Signature is a very nice APC. It had no harsh chemical smell and cleaned extremely well. I feel it holds its own in comparison to other APC’s like Meguiars and Opticlean. I will do some further testing on interiors and carpets.
2) Pinnacle Black Onyx applied easily and left a very nice gloss for two coats. No sling at all after driving. I will try and report back on it’s durability and how it holds up in rain.
All and all I found my results and feelings on the products to be comparable to other reviews that I have already been posted. Both are an excellent and great addition to the Pinnacle line.
