Slickrims Tyre Treatment

[JeffM]

This product caught my eye the other day as it mentions it uses sio2 in its product. Everything else with sio2 in it rocks right, this should too.

The bottle its in is awesome, glass with a pump sprayer.

This tire hasnt seen a dressing in probably 10k miles, its always kinda disappointing so ive neglected them.

I cleaned them 3 times with power clean mixed @50% strength. I should have ordered Shine Supply tire cleaner as that would have done a better job I think.

I couldnt fine a eagle one applicator, thought I had some, so I used a coating applicator. Not a fan of how the product spread, seemed to disappear into the applicator. I since have some E1's and will try it again, but as of right now I wouldnt purchase again based on how it spread.

The product is oily, im sure a different chemistry but feels like black wow, slightly thinner, and spreads about as annoyingly as it does.

Its the performance though, if it delivers it surely is worth the small hassle.

Looks are great, this is after 2 hours, yes I know I missed a spot

It looks the same the next day.

I also followed the same procedure on my truck tires that have 4k miles on them. I was cursing a bit trying to spread the product in the texture side wall

Since its oily I was nervous about the next day. I dont remember reading in the product description that it dried dry to the touch.

I am on a job side for the next 3 weeks that will do this to my tires every day

This is fine if the tires can be hosed off clean at night due to the sio2 technology

This is a simple hose off

That was fairly impressive imo. After the tire dried there is some dust still stuck on, but the tire is still showing product on it.

Like I said, I will be hosing my tires off for the next 3 weeks every day, ill post a pic every other day, or if something exciting happens (sarcasm )

Hey Jeff,

Thanks for the review. Look forward to seeing your future pics.

I've been using the Shine Supply Tire Cleaner and like it.

I have been watching the tires on both the jeep and the truck and I think I actually like this stuff despite how my review comes across.

I will get a picture of my trucks tires, which are not showing as strongly as the Jeeps tires. A couple reasons why I think.

1: I probably put it on too heavy as I was struggling with the texture
2: It was probably not dry even a day later.
3: The truck tires have 4500 miles on them, it could hinder bonding.

The day after I hosed off my tires the look had been diminished a little, but they still bead water today!

I waited several days to hose off the Jeeps tires and the stuff is sticking very well.


This was today, looking great!

Thanks for the update Jeff.

This looks to be very similar to Gyeon's tire dressing with si02.

I had some issues with slinging. It almost seems to look best after a wash/rinse.
