Hi-
Looking for some opinions on a medium to high gloss premium tire dressing. I had been using Sonax but it slings even after being on for 3 weeks. Any opinions would be great, thanks!

Check out Blackfire's new Total Eclipse Tire Gel. You can alter the application to achieve your desired finish.

Optimum Opti-Bond is a very good option.

Most gels are higher in gloss but do tend to spit. Make sure tire is completely dry before application (especially in ribbing). Apply a thin coat and allow to sit for 10 minutes. Wipe off any excess with clean towel or wax applicator.

I personally like Poorboys Bold and Bright. I am just not sure it's water based...
I have some PERL to try but have not tried it yet.

Glossy and when applied correctly, very little sling
Wolfgang Black Diamond Tire Gel this thick gel penetrates beneath the surface to give your tires a long-lasting true glow! (http://www.autogeek.net/wg4700.html)
I like DP gloss tire gel
:iagree:
You can really tailor the look with this. 2 coats 30 minutes apart produces a lot of shine or 1 coat and buff a little with a towel leaves a satin just real clean tire look. Always let it dry 30 minutes before driving, I have never ever had it sling or run.

I don't think it is water-based... or is it?

No votes yet for Megs Hyper Dressing?
This weekend I also found that Megs Water Based becomes a mirror if you spray and don't wipe off.
