I like a nice shiny bike and i love the look of the amourall type of protectants on the tires to make them all nice and black and shiny, BUT I wont use it on the bike because I dont want to find out that the silicone has gotten onto the tire's tread by sliding out in a corner.

I have found this new stuff that made in the US that claims they are motorcycle safe and are silicone free.

Has anyone tried it?

 

I was going to order some and try it out.

Nice video, sound is good, picture comes out well,,,,,, but it doesn't show anything.

Anyhow, how are you going to revive old leather, vinyl or rubber,,, all you can really do is to cover it up,,, once it's dried out and cracked, you're not going to glue those cracks back together,,, but if someone want to believe that,,, well they can for a while anyways.

I wonder if you get the slip and slide effect like with Amor All

:Laugh:

 

I think thats the selling feature,.... is that it isnt slippery like amourall is, so you can use it on your scoot.

And Marcarl, I dont think its being sold as a fixer, its being sold as a protectant like amourall, except better.

I would like my tires to be black and shiney on my bike but i wont put something slippery on my tires, whereas this new stuff isnt sposed to be slippery at all.

I wonder what it'll look like 6 months down the road?? I tried Armoral on my truck tires once... because I was young and dumb.... and the sidewalls turned an ugly brown after a bit. Now if I want a tire to look 'black' I use 'Soft Scrub' and a stiff brush. They end up looking like new. On the seats, and other leather parts, I use Farmans 'Leather New'.

I was once told by a professional upholsterer that Armour All was one of the worst things you could put on a vinyl dash or motorcycle seat. That it actually will cause it to dry out and crack faster because it is a petroleum product.

 

I don't use it anymore. I have no way of qualifying his statement, but I figure if anyone would know, he would.

 

Just thought I would pass the info along.
