    Everything I use seems to give my tires a nuclear glow, (and yes, I`ve use 303 and Endurance.) Since I have a black car, I would like the look of dark, maybe jet black tires. Any suggestions?

    Yeah, deep, dark black tires with no sheen at all looks great on black cars. It doesn`t take attention away from the paint as much IMHO.



    I would try using a good tire or all-purpose cleaner to give `em a "like-new" look and finish with a dye like Forever Black.



    I haven`t tried the Forever Black tire dye yet... so u can be the ginny-pig!

    I don`t have a digital camera, so pictures would be a problem. However, I have tried degreasers and cleaners, and after I dry the tires, they are faded and look bad. I`ve been applying 303 everyday for 4 days trying to make it look good, but it looks fake, like plastic, and has a weird "nuclear glow." (That`s the only term I can think of.)

    I like the deep black with no gloss as well. I`ve had very good sucess using the Endurance (NOT the High Gloss). I put it on, let it sit about 20-30 minutes, and then buff with a terry towel.



    No runs, no drips, no errors, and most importantly, no gloss.

    chuck do you buff the the tire after it dwells for a while? this gets rid of some of the shine and makes it satinny if that is a word.



    if you want it less satinny try wiping with a slightly damp rag...
