    Thumbs down Mothers speed tire shine

    http://www.autogeek.net/mothers-speed-tire-shine.html

    I have to call it like I see it. Used this Sunday just to try something different. It was really glossy, so I knocked down the shine as stated after 10 min with a old MF towel. After my trip to work Monday and inspected the Xterra this morning, it was littered with some of the worse sling shots I have ever seen from a tire shine product. Had to do a emergency wash this morning to remove them. Stripped the Mothers off, took some doing being it is silicon based, and reapplied the true and tried Gyeon tire. Mothers makes some fine products, but this is not one of them. It would work great for the average consumer that is in a hurry or really does not care about sling. My guess it would last quite some time without re applying.

    Thanks for the feedback.

    I can't believe it would still sling even after you wiped down the tire with an old MF towel. Usually, sling comes from excess product on the tire but you already removed the excess. That's crazy.

    That's why I thought too. And I did not spray it on heavy. I really had the feeling it was going to end up on the paint even after wiping. I am yet to see or use a aerosol tire shine product that does not end up on the paint.
