tire detail question

Just got a bunch of zaino for xmas and was looking for a product to do tires when i recalled a product i saw at either the ny or dc autoshow last year...The booth demos were pretty compelling so i was wondering if anyone has used this product with any success or failure?

Black....Shiney.....Tire Stuff!

I've used everthing possible on tires to make them slick, black and shiney.
My Dad used PepBoys tire paint we'd cut with paint thinner so we could
brush it on our tires. Then there was shoe polish....didn't last. Then along
came Armorall, I may have used a gallon of this stuff inside and out. Some
people still use it but today I only use Meguiar's Endurance highgloss
that I put on with an applicator. Lasts for weeks but I let it dry before
putting my G on the street.

I use the BLACK MAGIC tire gel. You can apply it with a paint brush! Beware it is like syrup,very thick! It lasts for weeks.

Mothers FX tire shine works well and will not spit if you do not put too much on and let them dry for a little bit. Does not last like Meguiars Endurance, but does not take as long to dry.
