Anyone recomend black tyre paint?
Discussion
Bit of an odd request this one but at least I'm in the right forum!
On my TVR I would dream of using black tyre paint, I prefer to use a clear finish like wonder wheels rubber dressing which restores the look of the tyre and gives a semi-matt finish, however...
I also have a 50 year-old classic Aston Martin which has big 16" cross-ply tyres and I want to make them look nice. I spent some time this morning experimenting with my wonder wheels stuff and some bumper black but the tyres just dried back to a rubbery brown! So... has anyone any experience of using tyre paint and if so is there a best brand to go for? I don't want glossy shiny rubber just subtle semi-matt black.
Thoughts/comments? Cheers Rich...
p.s. here's the machine in question...

Einzett make a wonderful matt tyre product available via their website.
Aerospace #303 and Zaino Z16 are also two products well worth taking a closer look at.
Blackfire Tyre Dressing is a fine product with real durability.
Spend some time on detailingworld.com to see who makes the best tyre dressings, matt or gloss.
Just remember to gently clean the tyre with a decent all purpose cleaner and a brush before dressing.
