What are you Guys using for Tire Blackener

I'm crazy about this, constantly doing it, really working it in. I've experimented with a few and the best so far I've used is Armour All Extreme Gel. What have you guys tried with success?

Have you tried Megs Hyper Dressing? Good stuff You can mix it at different dilutions to get a matt shine or a satin look, mixes w/water. Plus you can dress your frame, fender wells, etc. Check it out: http://www.autodetailingsolutions.net/d17032.html

I put on a coat of Meg's Endurance tire gel, let it dry, and then hit it again with another coat.

Meg's Hot Shine Foam. Although HD is a close second, since you can use it on your tires as well as pretty much any plastic.

Like many of you, I went years of trying different products until I found HyperDressing. It's by far the best that I have used. It's very versatile.

2 thumbs up.

Ok thanks guys... I may have to check that out... where is the best place to get it, or is it available online only?

If you want a glossy wet look, Megs Hot Shine gel is as good as any - use a Eagle One or equivalent tire swipe. It *will* sling, and it *will* turn brown.

I use the PB tire dressing. Works well.

This is the natural look version that I am talking about, so I don't know if that will work with what you are looking for.

PB does make a Trim Restorer, it is very good but I would argue that BW is better for this purpose. PB TR can be used to manitine what you fix as well as Hyperdressing. PB NLD isn't going to going to restore however, it works great and is a favorite of many here for interior work

No, it dont keep from turning brown. It is just a applicator to apply tire shine.
This is a Eagle One tire swipe
