I use Meguiars NXT Insane Shine Tire Spray in the can. It is very easy to apply, lasts for a long time, very shiny, and no sling off that I have noticed.

 

I realize this is not available in stores- but it's the best I ever used.

That grape tire shine doesn't look to bad rrroscoe. I've purchased some of the High Temp black wax off the that web-site before. They have very reasonable prices and a large inventory.

Thanks for the tip.

 

thats a simple answer lol... what your looking at is a hub cap, they zip tied it with a clear zip tie so it will not fly off the car and leave you with 4 some what nice looking wheels and one solid black one.... ive reccomended doing this to several people with hubs, it also keeps people from stealing them because the dont sit there and try to figure out why you hub cap wont just pop off.

 

Stoners brand at Advance auto parts is buy 1 get 1 free!

 

WOW thanks for all the help. I went to Auto Zone for the purple Meguiar's but they were out. They did have Meguiar's Hot Shine Gel. Works and looks very nice and is supposed to be long lasting... we'll see. Thanks again everyone for your help. Hey also if you want to see pics, I posted in detailing under (detailed the truck).

 

Around here Wally World has Insane Tire Shine Spray on clearance for $5 a can.The regular price was just under $7.

 

Watch the 'Insane Tire Shine - NXT' product... it features Hexane as an ingredient and, coming from the environmental world, hexane is kind of an ugly chemical.

It's not a significant proportion to my recollection but, hexane is a carcinogen and, as such, should be treated with A LOT of respect.

 

RP - Is this stuff really good on all other trim, specifically the trim around the windows?



I have tried multiple dressings from Armor All to Back to Black in these areas and have not found anything that gives a consistent shine. Not really looking for that high gloss shine, but something that looks good and gives consistent coverage. I was very happy with Back to Black on areas of the bumper, mirrors and step bars, but the trim around the windows is causing me the biggest grief. Thanks

 

The reason that you're having some problems with that is because it's a few different types of rubber that are molded together -- I believe. That may explain some of the nonconformity.

I'll be 100% honest with you -- I've never used it on those parts... that said, I can't tell you good/bad/or ugly.

I've been using this for a few washes....not too bad....I apply it with my hand - squirt some on the tires then smear it with my hand....works pretty good.

 

Thanks. What do you use on these areas or do you simply not use any dressing on them?

 

I have put Vinylex on them once or twice but, generally speaking, they get nothing but my love and admiration. LOL!
