Black spotts around wheel wells

Just curious after washing the car i apply some tire wet shiny stuff to the tires to give em a nice shine then after about a day or 2 ill see tiny black spots around the wheel wells going backwars but the easily wipe right off with hand or cloth. my question is , is this coming from the shiny tire stuff im putting ont the wheels and if so is there something i can use so it will not do that?

Usually after applying tire shine (Shiny stuff) you should let it dry before driving, otherwise it will kick up on the side of the car, thats what you are seeing.

hope you dont drive hard...

I have heard multiple times dont apply that CR@P!!
it'll run down, then make the outer edge of the tire slick (and in a hard turn thats NOT what u want).... get my drift..

(i have still used it tho, if my tires begin to fade a lot)
..Just use as little as possible, whipe all excess off AND LET IT DRYYY.. sounds to me your over-killin it, its pickin up dirt on your tire and then thrown all over the car.. (like white said)

I like using a water based tire/rubber treatment which when applied with an applicator sponge it leaves the tires perfect with absolutely no sling from excessive product.
