    Brief Thoughts: DP Tire Gloss Gel

    Hi All, some quick pics/thoughts on the DP Tire Gloss Gel. Dirty Audi/Break dust wheels:

    Wheels/Tires were cleaned first with a hose down, Mothers Tire Brush with Megs Gold Glass, then with Zep Citrus 1:10. After the initial cleaning got most of the surface dust/dirt off, they were cleaned with Sonax Full Effect Wheel Cleaner. Finally topped off the DP Tire Gel:



    Yuck



    Damn Audis



    Sonax doing its thing



    Clean/undressed tire



    DP Tire Gloss Gel, nice and thick/viscous, applies easily



    Dressed tire the following morning



    Comparison again




    Nice product, easy to apply, goes on smooth, wipes away clean. Nice deep/black look. No flinging on my morning drive today. Will see how long she holds up, but a great buy on BOGO

    its likely blooming where the black coating on the tire has been removed thru cleaners.

    I like the new DP Tire Gel for its more lotion like consistency, but I swear the old gel version was wetter looking. Am I nutz ??

    Did you find it to be splotchy? No offense intended, but I found some of your after pictures to be darker in some areas than others. Could have been the camera? Not saying it was user error by any stretch, just wanting to get an idea if that is a problem that you ran into?
