Tire Dressing / Rubber Trim products

[brentech]

A few products that I don't have in my arsenal are tire dressings and something to keep the window seal trim black.

Curious if you guys have tire dressings that doesn't fling to the rest of the car as soon as you start rolling. It's been a really long time since I've bothered with these products because of this, but I feel like something has to be out there by now that can manage to stay one the tires.

Also, I have some area's of the black rubber seal around windows that could using sprucing up (getting some white hazing). Any recommendations for these products.

I look in the store and see a lot offered for tire dressing, but just don't want to use it if it's going to be messy. As for the the seal around the windows....I'm just not sure I'm finding the right products. Lots of trim sealants or plastic trim restorers, but that's not what I'm looking for.

I use Chemical Guys VRP on my tires. Doesn't sling and dries after a minute or two. For trim I tend to use Collinite 845. It makes it a nice black and protects long. Just be sure to wipe down the trim right after application.

Part of managing sling is the product, and part of it is simply application technique. If you use a heavy, oily dressing, it needs to be wiped down once it's penetrated, so there isn't dressing left on the tire to sling. You're applying a liquid, and if you leave it on the surface of the tire (especially in ribbing or raised lettering) and then spin it, it's going to sling, no matter what.

I'll have to take a look at that VRP and sift through some of the trim products, thanks all.
