A friend of mine mentioned that back in the day, he used Dupont Tire Black on his vehicles. Has anyone seen that product or an equivalent anymore?

Now days there are a lot of tire conditioning products that work very well. Turtle wax tire shine is one I like. It gives the tire a like new look without putting a fake looking gloss to the rubber.

My friend is looking to paint the white walls black on his tires. I believe these are his cheater slicks.

Black sharpies/magic markers came out looking purple over the whitewall when I tried them.

I used semi-flat krylon and a q-tip. Took 10 minutes to do two tires, two coats. Still holding up months later.
