Blak, Lasts 12 Months+, Rich Black Tire & Trim Treatment, Mid to High Shine, Floor Mat-RV-Golf Cart, 100% Motorcycle-Safe, Ceramic-Hybrid Protectant, Wash-Proof, 5 min Dry-Seal 8oz

Having used black tire dyes before, I liked the flat "new" tire finish but the dye did not last long enough and eventually turned the tire brown-ish. Despite costing much more, I liked the restorative polymer concept behind BLAK and the reports that it was not too shiny. For my first use, I removed the wheels from my car (I was rotating them anyway), washed and dried them thoroughly, then laid them over a plastic utility bucket, to raise them up and be able to turn them over and not scratch the finished side. My BLAK package included 2 block sponge applicators, 1 foam paint brush, and 2 nitrile gloves, which increased the value and allowed me to use the product without having to buy applicators. BLAK is really thin, almost like water, and I quickly learned to NOT squeeze the bottle. Instead, I allowed some BLAK to dribble out onto the sidewall and run around the rim. Using an included sponge block, I could then easily distribute the product. Two things to note: 1) shake the bottle before opening and in between coats and 2) do not over rub the product - just wipe on or distribute it then let it be. After applying 3 coats to both sides of 4 17-inch tires, I only used about 1.5 to 2 oz. With 3 coats, the tires were a little more shiny than I like but not too shiny. The shine eased a bit over a few weeks and looks really good, now. Having learned how little BLAK was actually needed, the cost turned out to be much less than the tire dye I had previously used and the finish is much more substantial. My car sits out in direct sunlight all day and the tires need good UV protection. BLAK also worked well on the rear bumper's rubber pad, after applying painters tape to protect the white bumper. I also contacted Renew Protect about some concerns and got actual replies from the owner! Now I have a better idea of what products to use for specific applications, how little product is needed per application, and how much longer the product will protect what it is applied to. I wish I had known about this company's products years ago, and not wasted so much money on inferior car care products. There is a bit of a learning curve to using the products but with a little practice and experience the results are outstanding. Having used polymer car care products for years, I'm glad that I finally found and tried BLAK, with RP.11 the next on my list to try. I think this company has the best polymers available to consumers.

Why didn’t buy this product instead of tire dressings and gels? Yes, it’s a bit pricey but I spent more with the traditional products that didn’t have the durability and shine I was looking for. All I got was disappointments. Prep is key! I cleaned the tires with Super Clean Degreaser until all traces of old tire dressings, dirt, etc are removed. You can choose the level of shine you are looking for. From a clean tire appearance, satin finish to a “glazed holiday ham” look! I chose a step below the extreme gloss. I have 2 cars with 215/55 R17 and 235/65 R18. It took about 5 coats for the finish I wanted. You don’t need a lot of product. No need to have the applicator pad soaking wet. I start with 1 coat on the first tire. By the time I finish the fourth, the first tire is ready for another coat. I repeat the process until the desired shine. I still have lots of product left! I bet I can do a small rental fleet of cars! Not sure why the bad reviews? You must thoroughly clean the tires or you’ll have bad results. This product will stain everything! Make sure you have a damp towel on hand if you accidentally smear it on your wheels or any areas you don’t want it on. Wipe it off quickly or it’ll be near permanent stain. I just applied this as of this review. I was going to buy the Gloz product but I’m happy with Blak as a stand alone. I’m hoping it’ll last a long time through the harsh Florida sun and heat. Forecast for rain this week. I like to see if it holds up. Buy with confidence!

So far I got the product on 10/11 applied it to my tires and today I reapplied to my tires again. It works really good but not once a year. I should have taken before and after pictures but I didn’t. My tires still looked good but weren’t shinny but looks like brand new tires from last application. I did a light cleaning to the tires so I’m sure some was still left on so like a a coat and half now and they look even better than first time applying this product on. It’s a good product doesn’t come aff after a wash or two and I wash my car a lot at least three times a week. This is a good product but now time will tell with this second coat on how long it will last. And fyi I we did have snow here a couple times and my it did not come off then with the snow and the road chemicals.

You see a lot of gimmicks out there nowadays. It makes you question the legitimacy of almost everything you see and read. To be honest, I questioned this stuff and as soon as I placed the order I thought, these suckers got me. Thankfully, it wasn't a gimmick and it actually worked amazingly. Using it on tires was one thing that didn't make me wonder, but I used it on my wheel flares on the camper and on the running boards of our 2015 GMC... Dang! It legit turned back time. Both were extremely faded. The GMC was almost white it was so faded. The pics probably don't do it justice but made a huge difference. I did 2 coats and am very happy with the results. Strongly recommend! The biggest intimidator was how to apply it. From the manufacturers advice to all the YouTube how-to videos, it makes you rethink life. After several weeks of wanting to use it but not wanting to do it wrong, I finally just sent it. After a good cleaning, I just used the brush to apply it and the wet brush to wipe off areas I didn't want it. Pretty much that simple. I read somewhere that 1 kit will do a mid sized set of truck tires, so I got another kit with having a 1 ton. 1 kit did my truck, camper, and GMC running boards.

Seems to be a good semi-permanent solution to faded black trim. Have hand washed the vehicle a couple of times and it is still there and none of the annoying streaks like the carfident product I tried first. Just make sure to quickly wipe off any that gets on the paint. I haven’t tried it on tires.

If you’re looking at this, you’re prob looking for a long lasting tire dressing. I am obsessed with my tire and have used many many brands. Everything from blackfire to carpro perl to cheap ones from Walmart. The first thing you need to know is this product is a black dye. Is it basically a black paint that you brush on your tire. If you are not careful in applying it, you will be painting your rims. This it is recommended that you mask the rim. Always clean your tires very well before you apply any tire dressing. I first use ADAMs and then PS tire cleaner. Both at full strength. Longevity: at first, I had a very nice shine. These were used on my 2017 4runner. It does go on even and levels itself out relatively well. It has a semi gloss sheen. It was good for about 1 month before the coating started wearing off. I put roughly 5k miles a month so the acceleration of “wear” is significantly higher with me. However, it doesn’t wear evenly and now there are some spots on the side wall that is purely rubber and some parts are still coated. And if you off road your tires, they will get dirty and brown real fast. I’m fact, the coating will discolor, especially in this Texas summer heat. The coating that is still on there has turned brown. If I scrape it with my nail, I can get some of it off. See picture. (I scratched a line of it off my side wall). You can see how the coating has been discolored. And this tire had been cleaned with adams + PS prior the picture. Still brown. I will be going back to carpro PERL.

Some reviews state that they had terrible streaking issues with their application of Satn. Granted this stuff is much easier to apply on textured plastics but I figured out a way to get great results with smooth plastics as well. I installed aftermarket fender flares on my 2010 Toyota Tundra. I opted not to paint them and keep the matte plastic finish on them to match the rest of my trim. Only problem was the plastic didn't look so great after a summer in the sun. Which brought me to this product. When I first applied Satn it dried really fast on that aged plastic. So this is what I did and it worked great! 1) Clean surfaces thoroughly and use tack clothe to pick up any debris left on surface. Tack clothe is a must! I just used an all-purpose cleaner. 2) Apply 3 to 4 wet coats allowings 5 mins to dry before additional coats. A little goes a long way. So apply it to sponge sparingly at first to get a feel for it. Make surface completely wet without any runs, moving quickly but not missing any spots. You can even mask of the area to prevent getting on paint and be able to get it on much quicker. No matter how well you did this some streaking is going to happen. 3) After you have enough coats on so it looks all uniform, no "dry spots", you can stop that application method. 4) Now get your application sponge and drop 4 or 5 heavey drops on it in different areas on sponge. 5) Take the sponge and pat it directly up and down, don't drop it down on surface and move it as you are going up or it will leave little streaks. Basically start forming little bubbles without runs. Do it all over the surface methodically. Wait for it to dry and repeat process if the streaking hasn't gone away. It worked great for me! I have been in the automotive reconditioning business since I was a kid and this method just seemed like it would work and I am happy with the results. Hope this helps someone. It's a really great product. Now just need to see how long it lasts.

As a car detailer, I’ve tried just about everything. This can be a little messy you have to be very careful. It’s very thin and runny, but it keeps the tires looking nice and clean and new looking much longer than the others.

Product worked as per advertised claim and applied easily. Coverage was good and went a long way

This stuff is fantastic, the finish it leaves on tires when you properly prepare them for this treatment with a thorough cleaning is better than any other tire product I have seen. This took a tire that had been scrubbed absolutely clean, washed 3 times using a good tire cleaner, scrubbed with a tire scrub brush, then blasted with a soap foam cannon and scrubbed again with tire scrub brush and added a whole new dimension of depth to the colour and shine. It is also great for improving the appearance of black bedliner, my truck canopy is painted with black bedliner and over time it had become faded. I applied this to it using the supplied foam brush and it brought the black bedliner finish back to life. I believe it now looks better than the day the black bedliner was applied to the canopy. I brushed it in very thoroughly and the foam brush was destroyed from the abrasiveness of the bedliner by the end of the application. I would recommend using a foam roller instead of a traditional brush to cover most of the area and save using a traditional foam brush for covering the tight and hard to reach spots as it is better suited for precise application.

Work for tire and also the best product to black the plastic part on your car

Très efficace et ne ternie pas vraiment après deux ans.

The saddlebags on my 05 Road king look refreshed and nice to have that sheen on them a huge improvement , I’m sure it won’t last a year but that’s fine, I’ll review them in a few months to see how they are holding up. Instructions on the bottle are clear and while it’s runny as stated the finish is good, just have rags and something underneath like cardboard or a tarp.
