I use Simple Green and Meguiars Gold Class Tire Gel for a satin finish.
I used to use Westley's, but that stuff is caustic. Simple Green is much cheaper and safer and cleans just as well.

 

That's a shame-- I really like it. Great smell, works well, very user friendly... I wonder why it doesn't sell well???

I guess it's time to get a case or something of it... I don't guess it's availible in a gallon or 5... darn... Time for a trip to big lots or similar...

 

+1 on the Westleys but I have never put anything on after that.

 

I bet UPS delivers to Murray... and even to Maysville.

 

Yeah but the shipping will cost more than the product unless I buy that gallon of hyper.... which I would still have some left whenever trucks as we know them no longer exist.

I hate paying shipping on stuff like that, especially if I can't have some first hand experience with it first.

 

Thanks for all the help. I will head to Advanced this weekend and try some of this stuff. I want my tires to be flat black so you can see the side lugs a little better....hopefully they won't sling residue on the sides of my truck like the shinny stuff does.

 

If ya have a Carquest around they will have the Duragloss. I have just about the whole line of Duragloss products now--they all work very well, and go a long way while applying. Hint: think Zaino.

 

Then just snag a 32 oz sampler of it. You don't have to buy it by the gallon from ADS. That 32 oz sampler will, at a minimum, make 64 ozs (high shine dilution).

While I understand your stance, I also understand the lack of a good P&B shop down there where you can snare some goodies...

It's a classic 'damned if you do... damned if you don't'.

Better yet, don't think Zaino -- well, at least when it comes to dressings, don't think Zaino.

The Z-16 is probably my least favorite Z product that I've tried... Dura might be good stuff -- probably is -- Zaino is good stuff when it comes to durability.... Z-16 (Z's Perfect Tire Gloss) isn't... at least in my opinion.

I found that Simple Green 1:1 worked wonders on my tires. It actually cleaned them better than the Wesley's Bleach White and I didn't have to worry about wearing a HAZMAT suit while I was doing it. It worked so well that I didn't even bother putting on tire dressing afterwards. Thanks again RockPick!

 

I tried this yesterday and it worked out great!
