    BF Tire Gel

    I just recently got a chance to try this stuff. Love the way it makes the tires soooo black along with a nice subtle shine. I have been using DP gel(which I really like also) and still have a half gallon to use up b4 I switch tho. My question is with BF reformulating, is this one of the formulas that will be changing or just getting put in the new bottles(hopefully just the latter of the 2)

    Re: BF Tire Gel

    Doc, now I`m kicking myself. I had 5 products in my cart on the 50% off sale and this is the one I put back thinking it can`t be better than what DP or PERL are and can`t do anything that one of the following can`t give me. Dp, perl, uttg, black onyx, optibond, or tropicare white pearl. Sorry, Getting off track... Anyway, the question is does it dry completely or is it more similar to black onyx?

    You know that I love DP as far as gels are concerned and thats all I have used used for quite some time now. I now like this a bit better. The way it turns tires jet black is rather a unique quality IMO. I found that it dries but I will confirm for sure in the morning. If you want a sample, give me a text and I will send it your way! FYI, it`s BOGO at AG right now....or at least till I order,

    I just hit the Bogo on these myself. Sometimes I would like something more "shiny` than products like Perl, Poorboy`s Bnb, CG VRP and so on but it seems the more shine you have the more sling you get. We`ll see about the Blackfire when it gets here.

    I am now getting excited for this stuff as I have a bottle that I just got. I was going to wait till spring and do a full BF treatment, but may have to pull this out and use it sooner.

    I want to try this stuff but I`ve got too much on the shelf already. I saw it on BOGO too but I told myself I wouldn`t order anything else for the rest of the year.

    Re: BF Tire Gel

    I used BF Tire Gel last weekend. It does look good and makes the tires look black. However, it did not dry to the touch like Optimum Optibond does. I had to go over with a rag to wipe off the "extra". Personally, I like the Optibond better. Oh, the BF was easier to apply than Optibond.
