SCOTT WITH DALLAS PAINT CORRECTION & LUXURY MICROFIBER SHOWS PERHAPS THE LONGEST LASTING TIRE SHINE FOR AUTO DETAILING luxurymicrofib... Products Used: Dupli-Color TP101 Black Tire Paint, 11. Fluid_Ounces - amzn.to/2TRgf4j
Tire looks brand new I like that look! When I clean my tires I use a cardboard cutout that I made just for my rim size and I put a drawer knob in the middle of it so I can hold it up to cover my rims. Super easy to make and only takes one hand with the knob in the middle of it to hold up while I spray shinny stuff on my tires. I cant believe you knew this was paint and you didnt cover the rims Scott!
Believe it or not, the best tire dressing I have ever used is black Kiwi shoe polish the wax stuff. I use it on my motorcycle tires mainly because it doesn't slip on the road if some of it gets on the tread area. It requires a little more elbow grease but lasts about 3 to 4 weeks even after thunder storms. I got the idea from when I was in the marines, when were deployed we always left our inspection boots at the barracks, but after being deployed for a year and not wearing the boots for a year the souls would crack and split. So we started putting shoe polish on the souls of our boots and it wood keep the rubber preserved until we got back. Plus the more you buff it after application the more shine you get. Had a hard time releasing this info because only Marines know it but you have a great channel and really seem to enjoy helping people so why not return the favor. Try it sometime Scott, I think you'll be impressed. You'll need a small brush applicator (approx. 1.5 inches in diameter and, you can use any junk towel that's clean of dirt to wipe it off and polish it. *Just do it after cleaning the tire with any APC*
I've used wood varnish in a spray can, it actually worked the best and lasts like a year though everything. Dirt doesnt stick! Eventually starts to flake off a little but not bad. Just wash and re-spray
When I was in the Marine Corps I used to get either a spray can or tube of silicone from one of my buddies in the Comm unit and use it on my 1978 Pontiac Bandit Trans AM. That stuff lasted forever through rain and snow. It never deteriorated the tires. I was in the Corps from 1982 - 1986.
Take a 1/8 piece of plywood cut to the size of the wheel. Cut hand or finger holes in the middle. You can tape it in a couple places to hold it in place or just hold it in place
I'm sure someone is laughing and some will probably bad mouth you for doing this. I for one am not laughing or by any means thinking anything negative. If you don't try it how will you know. It may last and be a great product. Little more time on prep so the cleanup is easier or now we know that their cleanup idea doesn't work and we can skip that and have one that will work ready. Or it will not last and your video just saved someone a bunch of time and money and we know not to think about putting into arsenal. Keep up the great work and putting your videos out. You have been a great help and I truly appreciate what you do. And I can't wait to try my new DPC products and luxury microfiber towels. Thanks again and God Bless you Scott and all your loved ones.
Also I would suggest that when doing such a tedious job of that detailed nature I would jack up the car just enough to allow the tire to spin freely so that 100% of the tires face can be completely covered without any issues plus that would also allow one to lay another piece of cardboard under the tire so there is no clean up required on the driveway or garage floor. Plus one more thing I would do is lay a clean garage used towel or something in that manner that you don't much care for so if it got over spray on it oh well and drape it across the fender and door for those that aren't as careful so one's pride and joy you are making look even better stays that way. Just my opinion though. Always ❤️ your videos Scott great job as always. 👊
I used Kiwi liquid sole and heel edge dressing on my 18wheeler for 15yrs. I used foam brushes to apply. When it dries it resists dirt dust road grime and salty roads. It has to wear off generally about 60k to 70k miles. Close in on my truck picture on my email pic to the left to see my results.
as a youngster, we used a DuPont product called tire black. it was like basically an asphalt type product but was black, shiny and lasted pretty good. brushed it on with a paint brush
I remember back in the day when detailers would paint the tires and wheel wells black back in the day. To get a car ready for resale.. I called them detail cheats...
I use a car wash and wax liquid for the paint and tires. For tires, I add a layer of the cheapest spray foam tire shine. Then I add a second layer of the cheapest squirt bottle of tire shine on top. No rubbing. It does not last very long, however only takes a few seconds to put on and does not cost much.
My ocd is driving me crazy about the section that is on the ground! i always have to pull forward to get the area on the ground when putting a tire shine on....but that does look like a nice shine scott hope it holds up if so im sold!👍
Appreciate the video! Did you ever do a follow-up? I'm curious because I'm interested in giving it a try. Just wondered how well it held up, if it held up at all.
it is interesting if nothing else. It does look like it has a nice finish, not too wet looking, but gives a nice dark black. Wonder how it looks dirty?
This is a very cool idea !....I used to use a product called “tire black” when I was a teenager in the 70’s...this was the only tire black product at the time...years before the tire treatments we know today...I liked it and I like this also !....I’m going to try it too...and I will definitely mask off the mag wheel !...nice job again Scott..!.....
I made a cardboard rim protector, the diameter of my rims, with finger holes in it. I use it when I'm applying tire dressing spray. Might have helped here. Also noticed the driveway now has shiny black tire paint on it. Wonder how long that will take to wear off.
Lol. Our mechanics at work ( a large delivery company) would just paint the tires with gloss black automotive paint when the truck was serviced. Actually looked great.
Love the channel and the video, but the whole time I’m watching this I’m screaming at the screen...”Scott, quit talking and get that overspray off that wheel!!” Lol 😂
Hey scott.maybe have an old hub cap, the same rim size as your rims, and use it as a shield while spraying.i THINK I made this method up.i have not heard of anyone using this technique in all the years I have been watching you tube.good idea?let's see if it goes viral in the detailing world.
Man car cleaning guru has it all over you. He’s the best detailer on you tube and leaves you in the dust. Watch his videos and learn something. All you do is talk and all he does is detail.
it looks nice but i got a feeling 90% acetone is melting the rubber under the microscope lol??? hope the tyres dont burst? dont you think its dangerous?
I have used duplicolor it is legit also turtle wax endura shine tire coating is good but not made any more. It flakes if u Meade up prep. Great looking tire
I’ve been using the clear version for the last 5 years. They just changed the name to tire “paint”. It used to be called coating or tire shine. It’s amazing!!!!!
Jason Currington I’ve tried the black and I’m not impressed. It was dull and turned my driveway concrete black! The clear is by far the better product for me.
I'm not to sure about this product yet but I have used their interior dye(paint) and I was shocked. Had that car for 4 yrs with that interior paint on it and it looked just as good as when I first did it.
if it's a 17 Inc rim u can cover entire rim using a plastic bottom tray from Subway sandwichs it's the tray from when u buy a platter of sandwiches it's black covers rim perfect
I think tire shine, wet looking tires looks cheap/artificial if you want to take care of your tires, especially on a classic car, use only water or glycerin on your tires if you need to clean them. Keep them out of the sun when possible, and never ever use Protectants like armorall on tires.. The reason tires look wet/shiny when you use protectant on them is, the chemical partially dissolves the layer closest to the surface of the tire, and when you wipe the tire you take the upper surface of the rubber away.. Just imagine you melt the tire partially, and that fills the pores of the tire and gives the appearance of a smooth surface. The problem with that is, it reduces the tires resistance to the zone. The tire will age much quicker, it will develop ozone cracks I was told this by the tire manufacturing companies vice president when I was sponsored by that company when I raced. I had to submit reports for each event and give my impressions of the tires. And my results. I asked one of the engineers what should I do between races to the tires. He said, between weekends, if you were going to use the same tires two weeks in a row, take the weight off the tires, reduce the tire pressure, keep them out of the sun, and never use a protectant like armor all on them. I said I thought armor all was great for tires. The engineer said, that is false, it’s almost the worst thing you could put on a tire because it dissolves the upper layer exposing the underlayer and makes the tire look shiny..The engineer said they actually chemically analyzed armorall and they were going to copy it, not to resell, but to put it on their tires while they were in the warehouse to extend the shelflife. That’s when they discovered, that it was detrimental to tires and it reduced rubbers resistance to ozone.The engineer explained it’s almost like making someone addicted to drugs. Once you start, you can’t stop. With tires, once you start using protectant, the surface Oxidizes, and you have to use more protectant to get that shine back.. The engineer also said the only thing to ever use on tires is water, and if you want to make them look shiny, use only glycerin, but never get it near the part of the tire that the Asphalt is supposed to dig into..
Agreed with that last post- You are the Man. Thanks for the great videos and thanks for risking it all. and... Holy shit man, You sound like Howard Stern- dude, that’s pretty freakin cool brother!!
May have to assemble the tires from the wheels to do this. I wouldn't risk the over spray without the right removal. This is what some used tire shops use on their tires
Get a big cardboard box and cut out the size of the rim and make some holes in it right in the center like you do a bowling ball. And then you can hold it up to the rim while you are spraying this stuff on. This is what I did and I don't have to worry about any overspray.
It washes off, after the first scrub, during a routine wash. A maintenance wash? I thought it shouldn’t wash off, and one application, lasts one year? Not true!
I experimented with gloss black peel coat but didn't use any masking because my rim's are black, anyways so after a wash down Voila showroom finish accomplished didn't even want to touch my ride it was so hot, too hot I instantly became a Photographer
I used this stuff 8 or 9 years ago... I wasn't impressed with the durability of I remember correctly... Optimums new tire coating is claiming 6+ months... I'm currently testing it out on my daily driver
Just make 4 . And in my eyes it's well worth it to do that than chance over spray on my vehicle. It's all about being professional especially when doing a customer's vehicle they would expect the detailer they are paying to treat there vehicle like it was a showroom car or truck no matter what it is they are doing
I just take the tire of the rim and, remount with the white letters facing out. Hides the sun damaged - dry rotted sidewalls. -And get 12, to 15 years out of a tire!
I've seen lots of suggestions for masking but has anyone here heard of masking paper? It's brown and comes in variable width rolls. There's even holders that apply the masking tape and has a cutter! Yes, I'm being facetious!
