Looking for a tire treatment......

Does anyone know if a tire treatment that I saw years ago is still available? My father in law had a van that had been detailed by a pro. The tires weren't glossy, but had a deep black satin look, which also made the RWLs look great.The treatment was only available by the gallon, and had "blue" in the name. Does this ring a bell? Or is there anything out there with similar characteristics? I'm just not crazy about the glossy wet look....... Thanks for any help here...

Can't help you with that particular product, but I also like the non-shiney look.
I use Stoners More Shine Less Time. After spraying all 4 tires I wait a minute or two and then wipe them with an old towel....Results are a nice deep black with no shine.

Thanks Marc I hope to find the product I was asking about, but if I don't have any luck, I'm certainly going to try your method...

I also use Stoner tire products. It works very well. Also, Stoner glass cleaner is the best on the market as far as I am concerned

Try this product-

http://www.shinytires.com/shiny_frames.html

I use their shiny tires product. But they also make one called Tire Luster - which is for a less glossy look. I am trying to contact them to order some more. The shiny tires stuff literally lasts for months!!! Its basically a clear coat for your tires.

I totally forgot... Pro makes a "BLUE" dressing too... this one hasn't been out long though -- I don't think. Pro makes a dressing for every day of the week... and most every holiday... and your aunt's baptism date... and ... well, you get the picture -- they make a BUNCH.

OUTSTANDING !! Looks like a lifetime supply of tire treatment, doesn't it? I'll try one, and then give feedback on it, so other low gloss, satin tire worshipers can chant the name as well......I really appreciate it, RP.
(Thanks to Marc, Gold, and Thais as well)
