Hands down Pinnacle black onyx. *I* LOVE the look it has. I only use it on my personal car because of the cost.


oops I didnt notice the poll with your choices I voted for the wolfgang because from the picures it seems the closest to pinnacle.

I chose Poorboy's Bold N Bright with WG Gel in a close second.

Armor All is also very good as is Z-16.

I haven't used Pinnacle because I get exactly the look I want from BnB. Additionally, when used with an EO Tire Swipe, a little goes a very long way and it will stay black for me through two rainstorms.

Still anxious to try Zaino, though. From the pics, it looks just about perfect.

I like Eagle One Wet Tire Shine, even though it is not listed. It's the only product that gives my tires a "wet shine" that I am looking for. I have not had much success with other products in terms of wetness as my tires have a "texture" to them.

However, I voted for Z-16 as it is the next best thing that I use regularly on my exterior trim.

For me it's a close race between Z16 and BnB...Both are sling free and last a long time and I'm still undecided which one I like better.....

Not listed in your poll but I really like the Megs Hot Shine. Spary it on then wipe down and it leaves a nice sheen that lasts for a decent length of time. I f I don't have that around then Armor All.

I used Meg's Endurance (original) for a long while, but then realized that product SLING was the source of a certain messy problem I was having with the paint on the lower portions of the car.

Then I switched to Armor All Original after reading the Guru Report. I like it, easy to use, looks decent, but perhaps not glossy enough for my taste.

I'm looking forward to trying either PB's Bold n' Bright or Zaino Z-16 next.

Stoner's MSLT for tires...

Actually, I have a whole bunch of tire dressings I haven't tried yet.
