Glad I bought a gallon of this stuff but looking ahead I will be running out and I need to find a suitable replacement at a reasonable price.

Wolfgang Exterior Trim sealant seems to do the same (works on tires and trim). It’s very popular and is a PBMG company like BlackFire.

WETS and products like it lack the cleaning component that the original Blackfire AIO trim product had. This topic has been discussed several times, and so far, it seems like no one has really come up with a direct replacement. There are products that clean, and then products that are either dressings or coatings, but I`ve yet to see one that does both.

Ultima trim and tire guard is very similar haven’t bought any in a while this used to be a highly talked about product

Although not the same product, a vinyl & rubber cleaner/conditioner would suffice. Meguiar`s has one at a decent price:

As Briarpatch noted, the OP is talking about the AIO, not the Blackfire Total Trim & Tire Sealant (BFTTTS), which was similar to WETS and UTTG.

Although I`ve never used the Blackfire AIO, from what I remember, I`d not think it to be similar to #40 or something like Poorboy`s Bold N` Bright.

Bcgreen: are you using this on hard trim, soft trim, tires, or all 3?

Using it on all three

It is difficult to imagine that one car-care product would be "great" for both vinyl and rubber, since they are two different types of materials, BUT I am not the chemists who develops car-care products for both.

I am wondering if Meg`s Pro Detailer Line D170 Hyper Dressing falls into this category that can be used on both materials or Finish Kare`s Top Kote Anti-Static Protectant & Tire Dressing does as well. Cannot comment on either, since I have no experience using them.

Mothers has a vinyl, leather and rubber AIO product (VLR). Not sure how effective that would be on leather.
