I think there are going to be a lot of reviews for the new McKee's products coming up here...just a hunch I have.
This weekend when I washed my car, I figured I would try the new Gloss Tire Gel on my tires. My intent is to coat them, but I did not feel like going through the whole cleaning prep process. I admit, my favorite tire dressing is Pinnacle Black Onyx Tire Gel. It leaves a nice look, and seems to last a decent while.
Immediately, I noticed this new product is thick. It is definitely a gel. I had a sample of the old DP tire dressing and I noticed it separated and needed to be shaken. No where on the bottle does this product instruct shake before using, so I imagine the formula has been enhanced to no longer separate. I shook anyway, and it still came out very thick. This makes it easy to manage and apply.
It does retain the minty scent the old DP product did.
I would say the initial coating is a low gloss. Its deeper than the tire coating for instance, but not a wet full gloss look. LIke many tire dressings, additional coatings will most likely amp up the gloss.
I like this is a user friendly product. No need to pre clean tires. I did not clean my tires, I just applied it right over whatever was on there before.
I will be curious to see where this product prices compared to the other offerings from PBMG. I liked it overall. The thickness of the product makes it easy to apply and use.
