CARPRO DarkSide Tire & Rubber Sealant — 1L Satin Black, Hydrophobic UV Protection, Non-Greasy Finish

DarkSide combines CARPRO’s nano-technology with a high concentration of polydimethylsiloxane to quickly revive faded rubber and tires while delivering strong water-shedding performance. The formula is built for simple application and leaves a satin finish that keeps rubber looking freshly dressed for weeks. It’s designed to both protect surfaces from the elements and make maintenance easier by helping dirt and water bead off.

How long will the finish and protection last on my tires?

Under normal driving and weather conditions, a single application can maintain appearance and protection for up to three months. Longevity depends on traffic wear, frequent washing, and exposure to harsh solvents or automatic car wash brushes.

• Typical durability: up to 3 months per application
• Best longevity: hand washing and gentle cleaners
• Reapply after aggressive cleaning, track days, or heavy road salt exposure

Will DarkSide change the texture or feel of rubber surfaces?

DarkSide is formulated to preserve the natural suppleness of rubber while imparting a rich, satin black look. It does not leave a slippery, greasy film; instead it leaves a refined, slightly satin surface that looks conditioned without feeling tacky.

• Maintains flexible rubber feel
• Satin rather than high-gloss shine
• Non-greasy, quick-drying application

Is the product suitable for faded trim, plastics, and other exterior rubber parts?

Yes—DarkSide works on tires, exterior rubber trim, and many plastic surfaces that have lost color. For best results, clean the surface first and test a small hidden area to confirm compatibility, especially on sensitive or painted plastics.

• Ideal for tires, door seals, bumpers, and rubber trim
• Clean surface thoroughly before use
• Always test on an inconspicuous spot first

How do I apply DarkSide for consistent results?

Application is straightforward: clean the surface, apply the product sparingly with an applicator or soft cloth, and wipe off any excess. The product spreads evenly and dries quickly to a satin finish; avoid over-application to prevent sling on driving.

• Clean and dry the surface before treatment
• Use a foam applicator or microfiber cloth to apply thinly
• Remove excess to prevent fling or residue

Who is this for: CARPRO DarkSide is aimed at car enthusiasts, professional detailers, and everyday drivers who want a long-lasting, water-repellent satin finish on tires and rubber trim without a greasy look. It’s a practical choice when you want to restore faded rubber, protect surfaces from UV and the elements, and cut down on frequent maintenance. Ideal for anyone seeking an easy, quick application with professional-grade results.

Usage & safety reminders: Test on an inconspicuous area before full use. Keep out of reach of children, avoid eye and skin contact, and store away from heat and direct sunlight.
