Tire Black

What brand do you think works the best, without slinging the stuff all over the side of your car???

I haven't yet found one that doesn't sling, they used to make these and proclaimed "no sling" formulas that didn't end up on your paint. I don't like the "endurance" formula's that last for days and weeks or a month. Also don't like spray on foams but I used to be in the "no touch" foam fan club. I don't need that stuff on my wheels.

So far these all sling:
Chem Guys Tire Kicker
Turtle Wax
Black Magic Tire Wet
Jay Leno

I've lightly applied and later buffed off a little excess, they still leave spots on the paint.

I like Leno's product the best though, nice rich black luster.

Adam's Polishes Tire Armor.

Deep sheen without slinging or uneven glossiness, good protection.

DIY Tire lotion and Carpro PERL 50/50 mix

If you get sling using to much. I work it in till its basically dry and then after a little a quick wipe with a rag to get anything that might still be wet

Ive let all of those sit overnight after a light buff and there's no excess visible and it slings but to be fair I do a 100+ pull most everyday and it just might not be up to the challenge.

I have used Stoner's More Shine for years and have never had an issue with it slinging.
