Lightbulb NEW Black Magic wheel & tire cleaners

I had some time today and decided it would be a good time to try out the new Black Magic stuff. I tried out the Foaming All Wheel Cleaner and the Tire Wet Wax

Here is before-

I started off by taking the hose and washing the loose stuff off the wheels, then I used the Black Magic Foaming All Wheel Cleaner. I sprayed the foaming cleaner onto the wheels and let it sit for 3 minutes

After 3 minutes, it looked like this-

Then, I wiped away the rest of the dirt with a microfiber towel (you can also use a sponge or soft cloth)

Finally, I hosed the wheels off with cool water which is the final step

Next one I tried is Black Magic Tire Wet Wax which is a new product, and claims the shine lasts for 8 to 10 weeks and provides the deepest shine of any tire dressing with minimal sling.



Once your tires and clean and dry, just apply the wax on the sponge and dab or wipe it onto the tires..

You dont need alot, just cover the tire. I started in one spot and went 360* around the tires until they were covered thinly but evenly.




Wait about 15 minutes before driving for the best shine, and to avoid slinging all over your paint



All in all both products were very simple to use and gave great results. I would recommend them to anyone, and I found the tire wax especially gave a much deeper shine than some other products I have tried recently.

All clean!! Well, the wheels anyway

I use the Black Magic Detailer spray on our limo, a 32' Lincoln Navigator. After washing there are tons of water spots, and this stuff is pretty amazing at getting them off and any other dirt/grime that was left over.
