As I live in the country, my tyres always get muddy and remain so around he sidewalls. I have a so-called tyre blackener which is great while wet, but when it dries, leaves them looking dirty and dull looking despite my washing and scrubbing them before hand.................any tips?

Nope, I'm on gravel, so should work for me. I'll take a look see if they've got it over here.

Tyre foam really does stain the tarmac. if you like black patches of tarmac, then this is the product for you!Alex wrote:why is that ?E30Mark wrote:'Tyre foam' don't use it though if the car is standing on tarmac.
If you hose it off quickly it doesn't stain the tarmac. My Mrs was well chuffed the first time i stained the driveway
