Doesn't the idea of making nature against the law seem to you a bit . . . unnatural? Support NORML |

Black magic Titanium - high gloss wet, no fling. Unless you leave it on thick.

i prefer the matte look than the shiny one.
any recommendations for the matte look? cause i've been trying to find that kind of applicant but don't know where to find, they are mostly for the shiny/wet effect.

A matte finish will usually be a water based product that does not last long. If you wash the car every week than this should not be a problem. Mequires Mirror Glaze Vinyl & rubber #40 is excellent. Mequires is sold in most auto / retail stores. |

i like the matte look, rather than the totally wet look. i use stoner brand "more shine, less time, for tires". stuff is pretty cheap and available at most auto stores. however, make sure you spray it on an applicator pad, rather than directly on the tire, or you will find tire shine all over your car since it's an aerosol can.
i don't like the gels, silicon spray stuff, etc... since most of those have the tendency to fling off onto your paint. i also don't like the foam stuff as it winds up getting all over your wheels.

have been trying to look for one of those and ending up buying turtle wax's tire applicator gel/thick liquid with sponge and don't really like it cause it's color is clear and easily end up on the outer of the wheels, then brake dust comes and just blackens the wheels on the edge.
