Black Magic Matte tire Finish. Awesome stuff

I've been reading good things about BM Matte Tire Finish at Autopia. I picked up a bottle today and gave it a try. It's a really watery clear liquid that doesnt have a smell. It only took about 4-5 sprays to do all of my tires. Tires look wet and glossy for a couple of min. then they dry to a nice deep matte black. Tires are completly dry to the touch and look brand new. I think I found my new favorite tire dressing. It was $5.99 at Auto Zone.

Thanks. They are Boss 330's 22x9.
Here is a link to their web site. You should be able to get them on Ebay or if you live in the Dallas/Ft Worth area I can get them for you cheap.

They look pretty good. I have been looking for a new tire dressing. Did you have to wipe them after you sprayed them, or did you just spray your tires and leave them alone?

No need to wipe the tires. They will dry like that in a few minutes.

Kind of reminds me of the good ol' Meguiar's M38! May have to try that BM product because I prefer a matte/satin finish on my tires sometimes.

Thanks for the review!

I was surprised by this stuff. For the most part Black Magic stuff sucks. For this stuff to work best you need to clean all of the old tire dressing build up off with APC. I like to look of HD on my tires but it attracts dust and over time it builds up and leaves a greasy residue behind. Some of you may not like this stuff because it doesnt look like there is anything on the tire. Its clean and dry with a matte finish. Every now and then I like the wet look. NXT Extreme Tire Shine works best for that.
