Tire dressing leaving black specks on white paint!

dustinm · 09-30-2009, 09:38 PM

Anyone know a tire product that is easy to get (off the shelf, not ordered), easy to apply, and MOST IMPORTANTLY, won't leave pin-head sized black specks all over my white paint whenever I run it down the highway? I've tried a few different products, and even when I wipe the tires down well after treating them and let them dry over night, I still get fling-off! I am not a fan of high shine, but prefer a dark, black semi-gloss finish.

Meguiar's Direct Hot Shine High Gloss Tire Gel

I use that, lightly. I don't like the uber high gloss look but even so you can get the excess up pretty easily. This can be bought at autozone as well. All the other crap I have the same problems as you.

don't say it's impossible and I dont think you've tried the Adams VRT so you havent tried everything. Come out to the Clnic/Meet on the 11th and try it for yourself!

I've actually tried many tire dressing and have come across 3 or 4 that doesnt sling off on your paint

Dustin... If you ever want to order something online try the Adam's VRT

It won't sling off and it lasts. We also have local dealers that you can contact ( if there in your area ) so you dont have to order online, just pick up in person.

Yeah, I can't stand that and I stopped using the spray on type tire dressings for that reason. Adams VRT is the only one I've used that hasn't sprayed all over the side of my truck. It takes a few seconds longer to put on, but it's still really easy.

so you're gonna keep these 2 or 3 other products a secret? i don't dress my tires at all, so I can't suggest anything, but I'm sure many people will never consider buying your Adam's brand just because it is not sold by any reputable store or online dealer that I've ever seen

Im pretty sure P is known very well on the titan forums. Like he said, he has dealers all over the place so you can buy the stuff.

Usually the products that arent on the shelf at AutoZone do give better results... After all, i dont think you can find a real swirl and haze remover or a revive polish on the shelf ANYWHERE.

I bought a bunch of stuff from Adams and wouldnt have it any other way... I am actually out of Detail Spray and VRT so i need to get a move on and order some more.

Hmm, althought I use Meguiar's M105/M205 for polishing - Wal-mart/Autozone do sell Meg products that will get swirls out. This is assuming you're using a DA or rotary.
