I was checking out some detailing supplies today and I saw this product called "Black Magic Tire Tint" that costs around $6. Basically you rub it on your tire sidewalls and it gives them a bit of color. It says that when the sun shines on your tires they will shimmer in the color you buy and that the effect lasts a few weeks. Has anybody heard about or tried this product? I'm unsure if it would look weird or not since the tread would still look regular. Not sure how bold the color would be either.

That stuff is sooo rice its not even worth thinking about it. Seriously.

ps. Maybe that stuff is par for the course down in the Fort. The Port Arthur kids wouldn't be caught dead with it on their cars.

 

Wow...Umm....

 

That sounds absolutely horrible, but I'm still curious as to what it looks like...

 

Word!!! I hate Fort William so much...
The ghetto of Thunder Bay! (JJ) I'm surprised somebody knows about this town.

 

Yup, very ricey - don't use it, please. Plus I heard that when it slings off the tires, it's hard to get it off your paint.

 

I was going to put red on my Super Black Maxima...but upon hearing that it comes off the tires...

I guess no ricing for me.

 

tire stuff only last a couple days

 

Went to LU and lived in the city for a couple years after. I know the crazy Iranian bike mechanic at Petries, Farzam.

So what's the best tire shine product?

 

Nope. 303 Protectant lasts a lot longer than that.

 

As does poorboys bold and bright and trim restorer (although I used that on trim not tires...I'm sure it would work well on tires too though).

 

I have to bring my bike in for a tune up...I'll look out for him!

 

I have some of this stuff .. a red bottle and green bottle .. but never actually used it. To tell you the truth, I dunno where it came from. I think someone gave it to my girlfriend, who put it with the rest of the car cleaning stuff.

Maybe I'll try it this weekend if I get bored.

(of course, I'll try it on someone else's car, not mine =)

 

Take some pictures, I still want to see what it looks like!

 

Magic Magic's tire tint stuff makes your tire look old and yellow after it wears off! I still have like 2 bottles left and I don't know what to do with them!
