    Best Tire Gloss? Like new car?

    I just picked up a new Jeep Cherokee and teh tires are so shiny. I don't know what they use but I have tried numerous products and even by wiping them some give sling off. I tried DP Tire Gel and Optibond tire gel. I am liking the gels. What do others use as their go to tire dressing? Thanks

    My go to tire dressing is Meguiar's Hyper Dressing.
    If you want your tires super shiny just add a few coats.
    You control the shine or lack of.

    I bought a gallon months ago and still on the same 16oz bottle I filled up, the gallon is still close to full.
    One gallon can make you five gallons, you just wouldn't get the high shine.

    Budget with versatility...Stoner More Shine.if its to bright and glossy for you,run the rag over it and buff it down to a nice NEW matte finish.

    Chemical Guys Silk Shine, but it usually won't last after a rain.

    I've tried a LOT of conventional dressings. The 2 I like the best are Poor Boys Bold N Bright & Prima Infinity. Poor Boys Natural Look will give you dark non shiny tires.

    I'm with him. I love Hyper Dressing for how you can control the amount of glossiness. I ddilute it pretty well at 3:1 because I just like a satin look.

    If you like Opti-Bond then I think you'll love CarPro PERL. I now use it as my go-to tire dressing. You can control gloss by the amount of coats.

    Many really are taking to the permanent tire coatings, such as Tuf Shine. I've never used it but it may be worth checking out if you are into that. For me, I like tire dressings so it's not something I'm going to get use of.

    My favorite as well. The satin shine turns matte after a week but the tires still look clean and black, not wet. This stuff really excels in the engine bay IMO.

    My next favorite is Griots vinyl and rubber dressing. Acts just like CG Silk.

    No browning and no sling from them either. Can't stand the wet tire look. I try to make my tires look like the ones on the shelf at the tire store. Clean and black.
