Hi guys, Im just starting out, can some of you help me out on tire gel? Not only your fav but economically, how can I get the most bang for my buck? Buy 16 32 64 or 128oz, I prefer a wipe on wipe off, are there any opinions on this. Please help.

Otc- armour all tire gel, if I'm in a bind this gets the job done.

Not OTC but still economical- Ziano tire shine, pretty popular stuff nice black glow.

My favorite but expensive- Ammo NYC mud tire gel, long lasting, black like outer space, and smells good. I can't find anything wrong with it lol.

Hope this helps!!!

I usto use Optimum Tire Gel, it was good kinda pricey. My new favorite is Griots Tire Shine, hands down the best I have used. It is like 17.99 and Advanced Auto Parts sells it!!!!!!

DP makes a tire gel/lotion that looks good and wont break the bank. You can buy larger sizes too.

I've tried hyper dressing before from a buddy, wasn't a fan gave it a few chances just wasn't impressed. It's nice because you can dilute it depending if you want satin or shiny tires. Durability wise if it stays dry it will hold up, as soon as it rains or you wash your car its gone.

I like Meguiar's Endurance tire gel. It must be the gel though. The sprays just suck.

Opti bond by far. 30 something bucks for a gallon and you don't use much for application.

I'm a Meguiar's fan too, the Endurance gel or their newer Detailer line of Tire & Trim Gel. These bottles go a loooong way. Don't be fooled by the cost.

Welcome from Lynchburg, btw.
