It seems like Armor All Tire Foam doesn't work as well as Black Magic Wet Tire Foam.

I also use Armor all because it leaves a deep dark and natural appearace to tires...... the very shiny and glossy looks does not look natural to me...

If I wanted it to be extra shiny I went over them with a second coat. I had a white car and never had problems with the fling.

I put enough on to make the tires shiny. Basically I put enough of the gel on to match the shine I got from the foam spray. I never put tire shine on unless the car can sit overnight. So there has always been at least 8 hours (almost always more like 12 because i'm not much of a morning person) between application and spinning of tire. I never need two coats of spray to get a nice shine, and i've never ever had any spray fling at all.
