Best low gloss or matte tire protectant?

Gone thru a lot of products and can't seem to find a tire foam/gel/spray that gives tires that deep black look without being shiny.

Any suggestions?

Best I have found is No Touch Tire Care, by Permatex. Just wish it was a little deeper black.

Yeah I hate the overly shiny greasy looking tires too. I use this stuff, made in england, you can control sheen my quickly wiping it; even if you cake it on it doesn't give the tires a greasy shine, but cleans the rubber nicely. Removes any mud stains and just leaves the tires looking new.

I agree 1 coat of the TUF SHINE Tire Clearcoat will give you a dark finish that is not really glossy. You need at least two coats to build up some gloss.

If you want a very matte finish that is only slightly darker try the 303 Aerospace Protectant.

Let me know if you have any other questions and I'll be happy to help.
