    Review - Pinnacle Onyx Tire Dressing

    Pinnacle Onyx Tire Dressing is a relatively new addition to the Pinnacle line.

    Water-Based – Won’t cause dry-rot

    Pinnacle Black Onyx Tire Dressing is water-based as opposed to solvent based. The water-based formula will not leach out antiozonants or the natural UV absorbers in your tires. This preserves both the look and durability of your tires. Another benefit of a water-based formula is that it dries to the touch. Pinnacle Black Onyx Tire Dressing does not leave a greasy, slippery finish on tires.

    Variable Shine

    The amount of gloss provided by Pinnacle Black Onyx Tire Dressing is adjustable to meet your needs. If you prefer a low gloss, natural looking appearance simply apply one coat. If you want more shine then apply 2-3 coats allowing 15-20 minutes between coats to allow dressing to bond and set-up. Pinnacle Black Onyx Tire Dressing is the most versatile tire shine spray and can provide the look to suit anyone’s needs!

    No Sling Formula



    Pinnacle Black Onyx Tire Dressing dries to the touch and will not sling! Even if you apply it a little too thick, you can count on it sticking to your tires. The only thing that sticks is the shine!

    Features:

    • Water-based formula dries to the touch
    • Will not attract dirt or dust
    • Non-sling formula
    • Variable shine depending on number of coats applied
    • Pleasant fragrance - no chemical smell

    Application Directions

    1. Always work on a cool surface in the shade
    2. Tires should be washed, clean and dry before application
    3. Pinnacle Black Onyx Tire Dressing can be sprayed directly onto the tire or onto an applicator first. If your vehicle has low-profile tires, we recommend spraying directly onto a tire swipe or applicator pad and wiping onto tire. This avoids any unwanted overspray. Wait 15-20 minutes between additional coats.


    Pinnacle is a premium product line offering the discriminating detailer superb products at an affordable price.

    Packaging



    Directions from the back



    Always begin with a clean dry tire. Use a quality tire cleaner or all purpose cleaner. Wet the tire and let the product sit for a minute then scrub with a stiff brush to remove any dirt, debris, and blooming.

    I like to dry the tires using my Metro Blaster Sidekick. The Sidekick provides an amazing amount of warm high speed air that quickly dries even the smallest of crevasses in the sidewall design.

    Clean & Dry





    Application

    Unlike the red Pinnacle Onyx Gel, Pinnacle Onyx Tire Dressing is pale yellow and is easily applied in a controllable spray pattern. I chose a foam rubber pad to spread the product evenly on the sidewall however I could have also used a paint brush.





    Appearance


    Before applying to the rest of the tire I waited a few minutes to give the product some time to even out and dry. To the left of center is a rich satin shine which is very pleasing to the eye, to the right, a dull dry tire...


    Full Treatment










    Pinnacle Onyx Tire Dressing
    is supplied in a 16 ounce spray.


    Durability
    - Time will determine this


    Pro's


    • Very easy to use
    • Isn't runny
    • Won't sling
    • Dries to the touch
    • Economical


    Con's


    • None that I can detect...


    Enjoy!!
