    The right amount of shine is discretionary.

    Re: Tire Dressings?

    Gyeon Q2 Tire has been my favorite for a couple of years. I like my tire dressing slightly glossy and it's very much that. Applied with a knock off Carscope makeup brush it's very easy to apply.

    I gave NC Onyx a try and occasionally go back to it. It's by far the easiest and best smelling dressing I've ever used. However, I've found it's durability to be about two weeks and even less if it rains. It does look really nice upon initial application though.

    I'm trying out SiRamik's SCTT right now and aside from having a chemically smell it's in between Q2 and Onyx when it comes to application and looks. No rain in the week since I applied it so I can't comment on durability yet. Applied with a Tuf Shine Foam Applicator.

    FWIW my tires are Vredesteins.

    I can get a week or two out of the TW Graphene tire dressing depending on if it rains or not. Not bad but not as great as they hype made it out to be.

    The fireball dressing i used can be re-applied already too - less than 2 weeks. It's still there but i will just quickly go over it again my next rinseless wash maybe late this week.

    DIY is up to the plate this week. The solution is already mixed. HA! I have a rarely used microfiber mitt in the solution right now to use on the lower panels..

    Re: Tire Dressings?

    A couple of good ones

    Jescar Tire & Trim - matte / satin appearance. Long lasting. Better than DarkSide in my experience and opinion.

    Glassparency Tire - adjustable finish. Typical durability for a water based tire dressing.

    Vonixx Revox - satin appearance. Lasts up to a month.

    Armour Detail Supply Tire+ - the most satin behind Jescar but easier to apply than Jescar. Dries to the touch without much leveling if any. 2-3 weeks of durability.

    CarPro Darkside - I had higher expectations on this one. Solvent based and similar to Gyeon Q2. Will last a little longer than Q2. Still needs to be leveled or sling will happen. I reach for the above mentioned over Darkside.

    Not sure if you guys have access to Auto Finesse in the US, but if you like a satin/barely there tire dressing, Satin does that easily.

    Next time include Untouchable tire shine, assuming you can find in stores.. its very difficult to locate this is why when we travel and we find it we buy the entire stock.
