good evening everybody, hope you are all well.
well tried this white wall tyre paint from WWW.FROST.CO.UK, what a crock of crap, looks like bubble gum splatted all over the tyre, won't use that again.
I have tried Crown Once Gloss, goes on beautiful, so smooth. just hope it dries ok, has anyone tried gloss the application and finish is amazing wondering if it dry's ok.

be fine untill you drive and it starts to crack you need a rubber based paint so it expands and contracts with the tyre
