Need some advice. I don't want a super wet look and would love if it lasted more than a week. And go.....

Re: Best tire shine

I just started using Ultima Tire & Trim Guard Plus and have found that it leaves a nice satin finish and so far has held up nicely over the past 30 days with just one application.

Lucas Oil Slick Mist....if you can find it. My tires are still shiny and I washed my truck a week and a half ago. No sling. And it's water based so it won't harm anything. Work great on trim, tonnoe covers. Good stuff.

Blackfire Total Eclipse Tire Gel

I tried this not too long ago and was very impressed with its shine and durability....

Re: Best tire shine

I've been using surf city garage's beyond black, get it at local walmart it doesn't sling. one layer is a satin look, add additional layers for more shine it lasts through several rains.easy to apply dries quickly.

Well if all these different recommendations just aren't enough, let me add some more. Poor Boys Bold N Bright. That's just what it is also. Or, there is that other "permanent" tire cleat coat that last for months...

Re: Best tire shine

Meguiars Hyper Dressing, 1:1 will give you really high gloss. I typically use 2 coats diluted at 3:1 and it lasts a long time. It comes in 128 oz. and is pretty cost effective when diluted.

Biggest thing with any tire shine is to make sure tire is clean before applying, that really can affect longevity.
