CarPro DarkSide Reviews

I really like this product. I have not had any issues with tire sling. I clean my wheels and tires with every wash, and it lasts a long time. I clean my tires with P&S Brake buster, let it dry, and then apply. Typically, I allow 2 hours to dry, but the other day I applied and it dried for 40 minutes and still had 0 sling.

Currently, my favorite tire dressing.

Applied after a very thorough cleaning of the tires. I let it set for 4 hours before driving. I had to rewash the truck due to "slinging" of the product. I wiped the tires with a clean cloth and didn't have any further "slinging". One short rain storm and product is gone. Overall I really like the shine but not the longevity of the product. I did a ton of research before purchase and can't say I would buy again.

Prior to the application of this product. I did a deep cleaning of the tires with tuf shine's tire cleaner to also clean up a lot of the tire blooming. The tires were ready for the application of Carpro's Darkside. Application with an autofiber tire dressing applicator made application very easy and applied evenly. The finish this product leaves is nothing but amazing which left the tires with a satin matte finish, dark and rich in appearance. Unfortunately the longevity is a hit or miss. One wash with ph car wash soap and the product is gone. I would say this product is great for the look but will not hold up to any washes.

Easy to apply, leaves a great finish. Does sling if you don't allow it proper drying time which it states is 1-2 hours. 1 hour definitely isn't long enough in most weather conditions

I found that the product spit up on the paint, and that if you rebuffed in order to remove any excess, it also removed any gloss. The product looked no better than other ceramic based tire products. Megs Ceramic Tire being the closest in looks, and Adams Graphene as another.

The second application, we deep cleaned the rubber tires to make sure no residue from any other dressing. It still produced some sling. Wiping with a paper towel 10 minutes after application left a black residue on towel that reminded some of a dye or tinted product. Love Carpro for products like Reset, but this one needs further development for better looks and outcome.

I used Darkside on my tires and was very happy with the results. The color and shine are lasting longer than other products I have tried. Right now, this is my preferred tire dressing product. The only negative is this was difficult to find. I cannot find CarPro products around my area, and they are only available through mail. Luckily, I found Detailed Image, which has provided excellent customer service.

Absolutely amazing product. Finally a tire shine product with a nice satin finish. Not too shiny and not too dull. Dries to the touch and looks amazing. Anxious to see the longevity now! My other products are in the trash now!

I've been looking for a quality tire shine for a while. This is by far the best I've tried it's a gel but it surprisingly is super easy to apply to tires with ridges it sort of levels itself out. It also leaves a nice matte finish. Would highly recommend.

Yes very good on tires. Doesn't sling on paint. Hope it last as long as they say.

Live in Florida and in the summer it rains a lot and I love how it last more than other products.

Waaaaay too shiny. Hopefully it dies down with time. Won't buy it or even apply it again.

Installed it last week and it went through a snow storm...Did a quick was with a rinseless and the tire is still dark... A typical water based dressing would not have lasted …Impressed so far
