Which tire dressings do NOT leave a glossy finish? :confused: I'm looking for as close to "natural" as possible....so the tire looks clean, not silicone shiny. Thanks!!!!

303 protectant leaves a "matte" look kinda $$ as the price went up but you may be able to find it at pepboys.

DP's Tire Gel can leave a matt finish if wiped off after application. A tire's compound plays a major role in the sheen or shine of a product.

I like this product due to it's price, need of little product, and longevity.

I find that 303 is a great natural looking look to a tire. It makes it look black like it is suppose to look like.

303 is they way too go...i always endorse this product for its many uses throughout the entire car...engine dressing...interior...convertible tops....trim...tires...leaves a matte gloss if you buff it off or a shiny bling if you put it on a little heavy...

Meguiars Hyper dressing diluted 2:1 or 4:1. Works out to be MUCH cheaper than 303. One gallon makes 4 gallons of dressing for under $40!

the megs hyper dressing is pretty good...used a sample once and was impressed with the results but it faded away very quick even at full strength..

I like it ok too......Pinnacle Black Onyx is a little less "greasy" though. Love them both although I would have to give the nod to Black Onyx.

No Touch Wet N Protect..........

This is my favorite dressing right now!

Easy to use and really goes on nice. I buy 10 cans at a time. Perfect for bulk detailing. Killer on the wells too!

I don't just use DP products...........

Just MOSTLY!
