How is it after 3-4 days? I find it fades quick, and Like Maquires better.

I'm still curious myself is to which is the best product for tires..

Yeah, it's just a detail spray not a wax, so it doesnt last long- just good for shows etc.

I use turttle wax tire wax. I got it in a gift pack one time but i cant seen to be able to find it on its own. I like it alot. Its a gel that just wipes on and dont spin off. Seems to last longer then the sprays.

Has anyone seen the origional black magic liquid anywhere. Its real thick. I havent seen it in a few years. But it always held up pretty good.

The best stuff I have ever used is called Blue Magic. It used to be the armoral we used at work, but we got sued cause it dripped on a customers tire treads and they couldnt stop (I am not kidding) so we stopped useing it. It is the best stuff there is.


It comes in a gallon and gets put in a spray bottle. I believe it was bought from a supplier and isnt retail.

Best stuff for tires is Mequires Long lasting tire gel. Everyone always asks me what I use. Use the rounded applicator only though. Usually doesnt go all over your vehicle either & stays on pretty long.

Ya for tires Meguairs endurance gel is the best. After a few applications it will stay black for weeks, until you drive through some gravel or dirt.

Black Magic is crap.

I bought the liquid wax and spray on detailer to put on my black S10. The wax had pretty nice results, but it was super runny and hard to apply. The spray detailer was the worst thing I've ever seen in my life. It just smeared all over the paint, making me wax that area again.

Meguiars all the way
