Hey, I'm looking for a good tire dressing that would be available at most stores. I drive my truck daily so the product needs to be durable. I also have tried stuff in the past that left my tires brown- don't want that. Lastly I like a product that is fairly glossy. All that said, what do you recommend??
Thanks for your help!!

 

This is what I use. http://www.armorall.com/products/vie...ory_index=tire

 

i use F21 tire shine...u can get it at any autozone...it protects and gives it a nice shine...

 

Hyper Dressing. Easily one of the most adaptive and versatile dressings on the market.

For wheel wells and tires, I go with a 'high shine' of typicall 2:1 or 1:1... whereas in other areas (door jambs and other trim), I'll go with a matte shine of 4:1.

What I'm getting at is that you can dilute the dressing to your preferred look... HIGH gloss to matte.

In my honest opinion, it continues to be the *best* product that Meguiar's makes.

 

I totally agree with that.

 

I picked this up off of the Meguiars web forums, which I now use for my own satisfaction. Guaranteed no sling, not with this stuff. It's very thick and sticks to the tire very well. A little goes a long way applying with a paint brush. I'm not a big fan of sprays, ideally having to be dainty.

 

What's up with the zip tie on the wheel?

 

Beats me.....I copied and pasted the pics from the Meguiars web-site forums. Maybe he got tired of chasing his hub-cap down the street.

 

My bad. I just assumed it was your pics.:o

 

Noop....Not my pics.

Meguairs has a forum strictly devoted to "tricks of the trade." I've gotten a lot of useful tips surfing around in there.

X2, on the Meguiars Gold Class Endurance. I use a sponge type wax applicator with it and it works very well. Seems to last longer than other brands + smells like grape

 

I don't know for sure but, I think they sell it in a 5-gallon... interested in splitting one up with me?

 

Sure. Just send me a pm and let me know.

 

I used this stuff for a long time starting with my gold 2003 Sport Trac and was very impressed with the results. Unfortunately with the black truck I see the stuff not only on my tires, but on the sides of my truck after using it. No matter how thinnly I apply it (yes I have tried the paint brush method) it still ends up slinging onto the sides of my truck. Now with tires that stick out past the fenders there's no way I would put this on my tires. I do love the shine of it though and it does make the tires look great.

I may give the Hyper Dressing a try. (can you get it in less than 1 gal?)
