Tire dressing help
Looking for a tire dressing that is not oily or very wet looking. It has to be in a spray bottle because these are truck tires with a very aggressive sidewall. I can’t stand the super shinny dirt attracting used car lot look. (Not that there’s anything wrong with that). What products do you guys recommend?

McKee's 37 SiO2 enhanced tire shine will do just what you want. It looks wet when applied and maybe uneven but as it dries it comes out perfect. Just a nice sheen, not glossy. Lasts weeks. It's a spray on dressing that you can either spray directly on the tire (for those aggressive tires) or spray on the applicator and spread that to low profile tires.

Re: Tire dressing help
When you say it lasts, "weeks", what type of weather conditions will give you this longevity. I've seen some with great longevity in the dry, but one drive in the rain and it's gone.

Re: Tire dressing help
Yea not really looking for weeks of shine being I normally wash my car once a week and the wheels and tires get done then.

Because it's a low sheen and really just a rich black rubber color, that stays around for a while, even after rain. I've let it go for well over a month without being touched and never turned brown.
It's definitely not like other dressings that add shine. It just makes the rubber look like perfect black rubber.
When I am after a little more shine, then I use CarPro PERL. Doesn't last very long but looks great if you apply every wash.

I am looking for the same thing the meguiars all season I believe is most durable and satin not that super oil sheen but they only sell a gallon. I tried a small sample it was durable and didn’t collect a lot of dust like a gel stayed on maybe three weeks when I washed the tire it beaded water nice. Hey u wanna split a gallon??

On my truck tires I really like Griots Satin aerosol. It’s a little shiny for a couple days which is ok with me, but after a few days it becomes more of of sheen that I love.
I spray the tires and level/dry with my Metro Sidekick and it pushes the dressing into all the nooks and knobs. These pics are prob 30 post application.

Agreed.
It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.
