Review: The GOAT of Tire Dressing - The GOAT of tire dressing! This stuff is amazing! The consistency makes it very easy to apply evenly. I like using the hexagon type applicator pads, which are perfect for Darkside. Once primed, 1-2 squirts on the applicator is all that is needed for my low profile tire. I also get no sling when applied correctly. Be aware that there is a cure time of 1-2 hours to apply properly. Also key to clean the tire well to remove old dressings and browning. The finish is perfect, in my opinion. Gives a low level gloss and makes the tires look like new. Not overly glossy or wet looking. The smell is not bad and seems to be low VOC—I put on in my closed garage with no issues. One thing that really stands out is the durability. I have tried a number of other products and nothing that really has the durability of this product. It is even fairly resistant to chemical treatments and can survive a few maintenance washes. I think the finish looks good for at least ~6 weeks in normal driving conditions. The price is a bit more than other products, but the quality and duration are worth it to me.
Review: Great performance. - As a car detailer this is my favorite tire shine/sealant. When using this tire sealant, its self-cleaning properties minimized browning, and there was a slight sling, but I overapplied it. It’s super hydrophobic, long-lasting, and chemical-resistant. It works exceptionally well, and with the right applicator, it’s easy to apply. Carpro sells pro products. What else can I say?

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent product
*by G***S on April 8, 2026*

Everything they say about the product is true. Tires still look good after applying over a month ago, however in Atlanta it hadn't rained but a couple of times during this time. Not too shiny..
