If so what do you think?

I'd be skeptical.  If it does do what it says, I'm sure it would probably crack as the tire flexes.
If you always do what you\'ve always done, you\'ll always get what you\'ve always got.

Looks VERY interesting to me... For $21.95 I'd say it's worth trying at least once.

I was at Ford last month an a customer with 500 miles on his GT500 came in to complain about his tires had dry rot. Ford called the tire manufacturer and they said if any type of Armoral was on the tire his warranty was voided.

I haven't seen that product... interesting but, like the others, I'd bet it's a no-no from a tire manufacturer stand point. 

Heck, BFG actually said that they were going to deny a claim that I had on a previous vehicle because of the use of 'protectant products'... fortunately, they didn't stick to that story and swapped the faulty tire (which was on my old 98' Exploder).

when i bought my truck the first thing I read was the warranty for the tires and it clearly said any solvent based dressing will void the warranty  :whisp:

That's EXACTLY why I use a water-based dressing on client vehicles - as well as my own.  Heck, even crappy old Armor All & Son of a Gun is water-based now...

I did not know this. Good info. So that solvent based stuff will probably just dry rot tires quicker then.

This is a wonderful product, I liked it so much I became a distributor of the Tuf Shine products.  I have product in stock and I am willing to give a 30 day money back guarantee!(as long as you follow the directions to a tee) That is the only downfall to the product is the first application is a longer process but after that it will hold up for a very long time. Email me if you would like to order and I will be happy to help.  They also have a spray and shine quick detailer that works wonders. This is a water based product so you should have no issues with the tires cracking at all.  I have had the product on my corvette and my jeep for over a year and it is perfect. I am not sure how to add photos since I just joined today but I am happy to forward photos to anyone that would like them.
