E30 Zone

Has anyone got any inside tips for blackening ( bad english...sorry ) the tyre wall.

I refuse point blank to use tyre paint ( tyre paint , its as bad as garlic bread ).

I spoke to a guy at a garage and he refused to tell me his secret of what he uses.

cheers

this pic doesn't quite show it as well but theis is definatly zaino gloss, not sure which he uses TBH ben, i always thought it was zaino but i could be wrong

No comparison zaino is awesome.

nver used or seen autoglym tyre black so i wouldn't know, this stuff is good though, and you need to use very little of it.

ok , cheers chaps.

Turtle Wax Wet 'n' Black - Bloody good stuff actually.

Yeah thats what i used to use when i had a car worth looking after keeps them black without making them too shiny

silicone spray would do a good job but be careful not to get it on the tread as it wont wash off in a hurry! (few quid in halfrauds, its for maintaining window seals, boot seals etc, meant to stop rubber perishing anyway)

Autoglym Tyre Dressing. Have used it for a number of years now. If correctly applied will give superb results. Spray on, leave 3-5 mins and wipe over using a cloth. Be careful though as residue can run down and stain the drive way.

I use some tyre foam, works wonders!
looks like u have whitewalls but does work wonders!

cant remember who its made by though!

i use a product called vinyl gel its great does the job .
got on the net at www.valeterspride.co.uk they got a large range off car care products hop this helps

Autoglym for me, spot on stuff lasts weeks.

Zaino is awesome, lasts really well and gives a nice shine without leaving a sticky surface.

I'll get the name of the one i use at work on monday, Its really good stuff and the shine lasts for quite a while, Its only 15 quid for a big canaster aswell.

i'll be getting that zaino stuff cheers guys

i use some stuff from a company called auto glym. great stuff and is water proof too

i use something called tyre shine by a company called car pride i get it from the local cheap shop for a quid a tin and the shine lasts for ages
