Product Description

Soft99 Tire Black Wax is a wax-based tyre coating that restores the deep, natural black that fades from rubber over time. Rather than leaving a glossy, greasy sheen that slings onto your bodywork, it cures to a clean, durable finish that looks factory-fresh without the overdressed look.

Ideal for:

- Faded, greying tyres on any passenger vehicle or bakkie

- Detailers who want a tyre finish that lasts beyond the first drive

- Anyone who prefers a natural matte-to-satin black over a high-gloss dressing

- Regular maintenance details where tyre presentation matters

Features

- Wax-based formula bonds to rubber for longer-lasting colour retention

- Restores rich, natural black without the overdressed high-gloss look

- Non-greasy and sling-resistant once properly cured

- Easy to apply with a tyre applicator pad or sponge

- Suitable for all standard rubber tyres

Apply a thin, even layer to a clean, dry tyre sidewall, allow adequate flash time for the wax to bond, then buff off any excess. Two coats on heavily faded tyres will deepen the colour noticeably.

Questions

Frequently asked

How do I apply Soft99 Tire Black Wax?

Work on a clean, dry tyre sidewall. Apply a thin, even layer using a foam tyre applicator or sponge, working the wax into the rubber in circular strokes. Allow it to flash and cure before moving the vehicle. Buff off any excess with a clean microfibre cloth for a neat, even finish.

Can I apply it to wet tyres?

No. The tyre surface needs to be clean and fully dry before application. Moisture under the wax will prevent proper bonding and reduce durability. Wash and dry the tyres thoroughly as part of your decon or wash stage before applying.

How long does the finish last?

Durability depends on driving conditions, wheel exposure to the elements, and how thoroughly the tyre was cleaned before application. In general, expect several weeks of rich colour retention per application under normal use. Two coats on heavily faded tyres will extend the result.

Will it sling onto my painted bodywork or brake callipers?

Once properly cured, the wax-based formula is resistant to slinging. The key is not to overapply - a thin, even coat that is buffed off correctly will cure down to a stable film. Excess product that has not been buffed off is more likely to migrate, so less is more here.

What finish does it leave - matte, satin, or gloss?

Tire Black Wax leaves a natural, deep black finish that sits between matte and satin. It avoids the over-the-top wet look of traditional tyre shine sprays. The result reads as clean and well-maintained rather than dressed.

Is it compatible with coated or treated tyres?

It is designed for standard rubber tyre sidewalls. If your tyres have an existing heavy build-up of dressing products, strip them back first with an APC or dedicated tyre cleaner so the wax can bond to the rubber directly rather than sitting on top of old product.

Can I layer multiple coats for a deeper black?

Yes. On tyres that are significantly faded or oxidised, a second coat applied after the first has cured will deepen the colour further. Allow each coat to fully flash and cure before adding the next. There is no benefit to applying more than two coats in a single session.

Does it protect the rubber as well as colour it?

The wax layer provides a degree of protection against UV exposure and environmental contaminants, which helps slow down the greying and cracking that affects tyre sidewalls over time. It is primarily a cosmetic product, but the protective layer is a genuine bonus for tyre longevity.

Tried a few tyre dressings that left white residue on my sidewalls once they dried. This one cures clean and the black is consistent across the whole tyre. Two coats on my front tyres that were properly greyed out made a big difference.

Takes a proper clean tyre to bond correctly, but once it does the finish is solid. Not a high-gloss look, more of a clean, natural black - which is exactly what I was after for the daily.
