Thats the only BOGO that tempts me this week. I have their wheel cleaner that is also on BOGO. I highly recommend it! I really like all of the Four Star products I have tried, especially the Spray Wax and leather conditioner. Both have Polycharger as does the tire protectant. I use Opti Bond now and like it. How does this compare to Opti Bond? I suspect it is more liquid than Opti Bond Gel.
 
Surely someone has used this.Feed back please
 
I have to be honest, its been a long time which means to many choices and didnt follow my needs. I too like Optibond and still Poorboys Bright/Bold (less durability, more gloss). I seem to remember the Four Star being a gel product. If it added polycharger to it I likely tried it before that. Maybe I get the rep to toss me some for testing at DF2010.
 
Thanks Killer, obviously it didnt blow you away like UPP. I have most of a gallon of Opti Bond and most of a bottle of Ultima Tire & Trim so I dont need any., but that hasnt stopped me before. I think if I was limited to 2 product lines I would pick OPtimum & Four Star.
 
I use. Like it very much. I think it is easy to apply, not glossy. Decent life span on tire but nothing outstanding. It is a gel , a little goes a long way. Never experienced any spin off, but I always do a final wipe with a terry cloth anyway.

edit:
oops, just checked bogo. They have the spray on bogo this time.What I use is not the spray, but the gel. (Got it on bogo last fall)

thats why I was confused ... I too remember a gel similar to Pinnacle but not as glossy. Sounds like the formula was updated and we all might have missed it. I thought I was having a senior moment :props:

I know this an old post, but 4 Star is my favorite tire treatment and I have tried PLENTY (Zaino, Ultima, Stoner's, 303, Megs (several kinds), etc.) Goes on easily, no sling, nice satin finish and, most important for me, the longest lasting product I have used.

I purchased this some time ago. Not impressed with it. You have to wait a certain amount of time before you drive so it doesnt sling off, yet it still does. I got it over the side of my truck. Plus it's to shiny for my tastes.

Which product are you writing about, the gel or the spray?
 
I broke down and bought a bottle of the spray. I didnt have sling but it is a tad bit glossy. We didnt drive the car until the day after application. It is very easy on. Next up for me is the new DP Gel which I got BOGO last week.
 
Thinking about grabbing some the the 4star gel and came across this old review. What's the consensus, anyone using it? Any good?

I already started a thread about this and only got one response, which was mostly positive. I decided that it's on BOGO because they are blowing it out for a new version that's going to be more like the Blackfire gel...but that's purely my speculation.
 
Setec, what do you think is an all around better spray wax, Megs synthetic xpress or Aquawax? I like both but don't have a lot of experience with the megs.
