Mini Review
Straight forward, easy to follow directions.
I shook the can well. (I do this will all chemicals).
I did a quick spray 4"-6" away from tire in short sprays.
I shook then can when done. I used less than 1/4 of the can.
Initial thoughts.
It has a very pleasing smell. It smelled like grape Kool-Aid!
The first thing I noticed is that it really blacken the tires a lot.
The second was the shine! Although bright, it was not in your face.
It is bright, and reflects light, without looking like a glazed doughnut.
Maybe that's because I did a light spray but IMHO it's still a lot of shine.
I personally do NOT like that greasy, plastic, glazed doughnut look.
This is not a flat matte look, it has shine, but it is a dark pleasing look.
I can't say if it has a sling. I sprayed the tires and put the vehicle away.
IMHO this is not your everyday tire dressing...IT IS for the Saturday night out.
When you look at the tires they "catch your eye" without you really knowing why.
If you really want that "glazed doughnut" ultra shine, a couple of coats could be blinding.
It is bright. I hit the tires once. NOTE: Wipe overspray off wheels, paint & plastic right away.
Final Thoughts:
I used one light coat for that "Car Show" sparkle without the glazed doughnut look, this is a quick & easy product to use.
Reflect really makes the tires look very black. I'm looking forward to evening lights and headlights reflecting off the tires.
This is one of those products that are a lot of FUN to use. I give Meguiars Hot Shine REFLECT Tire Shine a big thumbs up!

Thanks Merlin. I think this is the first review of the product. If it appeared dry to the touch, you would think it would not sling.

Re: Hot Shine REFLECT Tire Shine - Mini Review
I applied it yesterday and just felt it. It feels a little oily today but I don't think it's going to sling.
My first impression (besides that fact it smells like grape Kool-Aid) is it was easy & FUN to use!
The application was fast and the spray nozzle was very accurate with little to no overspray.
My two biggest nemesis are:
A black tire dressing/coating that looks good and has lots of durability.
A trim coating that adds black, has longevity and has a hard dry finish.
I can't say on the durability of Hot Shine REFLECT Tire Shine but it's quick, easy & FUN to look at!
