Thumbs up Detailed Image Product: Blackfire Long Lasting Tire Gel

Just wanted to add this in since its my new favorite Tire Gel...


****Blackfire Long Lasting Tire Gel****


http://www.detailedimage.com/wax.php...Tire-Gel-P204/



I used this on both my car and BlackJacks car... and the results were great! Went on smooth and Shined like crazy.... As we drove off and went to our Meet I checked the car when we arrived and the Blackfire Long Lasting Tire Gel did not sling or drip on my rims...

Another great thing is it last for a long time... I still have great looking tires and I have sprayed my car off once already with a pressure washer and still they look good...

So again I have to say this is my new favorite Tire Gel just on the fact that it is LONG LASTING....

And its not an oil based gel either so this stuff does NO Damage to you tires...

BlackJack's Car after I applied the Gel ↓↓↓↓









**********BlackJack will also give his comments later as well**********




Since the weather was horrible it cut us short on time and having a chance to use the PoorBoys Wheel Sealant which will be the next thing I try from Detailed Image... I will try this Wheel Sealant and review sooner or later....





Special Thanks To George @ Detailed Image !!!

My Feedback...

Excellent tire gel. I'm very impressed. The finish it leaves is amazing and excess product does not sling. We applied the product about 15 minutes before leaving and it did not sling on the cars when we left.

The best part about the Blackfire Gel is its longevity. After a week with it on and many days of rain, the tires still look nice and black. The tires have not attracted excess dirt.

I use this on my tires.
They're right - lasts a long time with no slinging or drips. Great stuff

just wanted to say thanks for this review. i've been wanting something to give a wetter look than the Zaino stuff i have. I don't like silicone based products or tire sling, so i'll give this a try.

I got a huge order going to detailed image in a few minutes but want to make sure of a few things about the tire gel before buying.


1. Any estimate on how long you think this bottle will last for?

2. How much is needed for each tire?

BTW a little off topic but I'm also buying some polish from detailed image and I see all different types of polishes. I'm wondering which one is the best? I want I need it to fix paint imperfections, swirls and scratches all at once. While providing a nice clearcoat shine.

I've JUST applied Blackfire to my front two tires. I can say that it's MUCH easier to apply than Zaino ZXX Tire Shine.

to the question above, it looks like this bottle will last a LONG time. What I did for the fronts is moisten the applicator (as instructed) then applied a zigzag line of gel to the applicator, then I went all the way around the tire with moderate pressure. After this, I applied another zigzag line of gel and went around the tire again in the oposite direction with light pressure.

Using the applicator will ensure that there are no runs or drips. I'll comment later on sustainability and sling as I've yet to drive with it on.
