Product Information
Full details
CarPlan Tyre Paint is an ideal solution for car enthusiasts and detailers looking to rejuvenate the appearance of weathered rubber components, such as tyre side walls and mud flaps. This specialized formula delivers a deep, rich black finish that restores a factory-fresh aesthetic to your vehicle. While it provides excellent coverage and long-lasting flexibility, it is important to note that the surface must be thoroughly cleaned and free of debris for the paint to adhere properly and achieve a uniform finish.

FAQs
Can I use this on the tyre tread?
No, this product is designed for side walls and rubber trim only. It should not be applied to the contact patch of the tyre as it may affect grip.
How do I remove the paint if I make a mistake?
Fresh paint can often be removed with a strong solvent or a dedicated rubber cleaner. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
Is this paint resistant to car wash chemicals?
Yes, once fully cured, the formula is designed to withstand normal maintenance washing, though avoid aggressive scrub brushes on the painted area.
Do I need to prime the rubber before painting?
No primer is required, but a thorough deep clean of the rubber is essential for proper adhesion.
Can this be used on plastic trim?
While intended for rubber, it may work on some plastic surfaces; however, we recommend testing a small, hidden area first to check for compatibility.
Troubleshooting
Paint is peeling or flaking shortly after application
This usually indicates the surface was not properly degreased before painting. Strip the old layer, clean the tyre thoroughly, and reapply to a clean, dry surface.
Finish appears streaky
Apply thinner, more consistent coats rather than one heavy layer. Use a high-quality brush to avoid bristle shedding.
Paint takes too long to dry
The paint may have been applied too thickly. Use a cloth to dab away excess product and allow more ventilation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure maximum durability, follow these guidelines:
- Surface Preparation: Thoroughly scrub the tyre wall with a dedicated rubber cleaner or degreaser to remove road grime, brake dust, and previous silicone-based tyre dressings.
- Drying: Ensure the rubber is completely dry before application to prevent bubbling or uneven curing.
- Application: Apply with a soft brush, working in circular motions to ensure full coverage of the tyre branding and side-wall texture.
- Curing: Allow the paint to fully cure according to ambient temperature guidelines before driving the vehicle to prevent road debris from sticking to the fresh coating.
- Storage: Store containers in a cool, dry place with lids tightly secured to prevent the product from drying out.
