[2k2blackWRX]

Im nto sure if this just came out or its been out for a while but I just got the email from CMA with the desciption of this in it. I just ordered it and it should be here by the end of this week or by monday.



I will use it and give it a review and post my results so look around for it.

I almost snagged that when I placed my order outta curiosity. Let us know and take some pics!

[YoSteve]

I just came back to post about this? Curious to hear reviews.

[2k2blackWRX]

I probably should have gone with priority shipping but well, i didnt.



Normally it takes 2-3 days for CMA to get an order to me. If it ships wed it might make it fri.

I order it too and as soon as I use I will post my results too. I hope it is as good as its sounds. :rolleyes:

[2k2blackWRX]

Well all my EF products have held up the thier rep so hopefully this one does too. Especially for the price.

Yeah me too, thats what I have been using (turtle wax tire gel).



One tip that CMA said to do is to keep the applicator in a zip lock bag to keep it from drying out so you do not use as much material. I am now doing that. Different applicator for each product.

I just put two coats per tire of Eimann Fabrik Black Sapphire Tire Gel on the wife`s Impala last night and this is what see so far compared to Turtle Wax Tire Gel:





1- Goes on easier or about the same as.

2- Shines a hell of lot more.

3- Its seems to soak in better too.

4- You need to use as much.



At lunch I will check the to see if it spatter on the ride in and after an over night cure and I will try to post some pics too.



I want to see what happens if you wipe it down to tone down the shine.



I will post more info as I get it.

2- Shines a hell of lot more. :confused:



Is the shine greater than that in the DK pic above? I think his tires look great, but I certainly wouldn`t want any more shine than that. I guess we`ll see how the buffing works. Thanks for the report.

[DETAILKING]

Does it dry non greasy? Does buffing reduce the shine? Keep us posted!



BTW that pic was taken after applying TW tire gel. It`s about as shiny as it gets. After buffing, it looks kind of like this, and continues this look rainstorm after rainstorm, wash after wash............

I know the pics aren`t great but thats the best I can with a 4 year old camera and me not being very good.



Eimann Fabrik Black Sapphire Tire Gel on the wife`s Impala compared to Turtle Wax Tire Gel the day after:



1- The shine tone its self down over night, it seem to soak in.

2- There was alittle sling with the two coat and no wipe application.

3- You need to wipe because there is runs from the letters.

4- They look pretty good after a light wipe but seems to need another coat for more of an even coverage. Maybe its the tires?

5- As of now they look about the same as TW.

6- I think you will use less of the Eimann Fabrik Black Sapphire Tire Gel to get the results than of Turtle Wax Tire Gel.

7- As of right now, not dry to the touch.



8- We will have to wait and see how it holds up???????



9- Its cheaper. At least when its on sale.



I hope this helps I am not very good at this type of stuff but I want to help when I can sense you guys have help me soooooo much already. :xyxthumbs

I just cleaned my tires and tried this stuff out. It`s pretty thick going on. I ended up putting 2 coats on cos it seems to go on a little uneven around the letters. It`s a little too shiny for me right now. I`ll have to go out later tonight and buff the wheels down a little bit to see how it turns out. My father borrowed my digital camera so i`ll try to get some pictures posted later on tomorrow.

[boywonder]

Thanks for the tips. I think I will stay with Vinylex and 303 for that task. :D
