Tire shine
I just tried this product from Armor All and it works great!! It is Extreme Tire shine gel.
http://www.armorall.com/products/view_product.php?product_id=24&main_group=3&catego ry_index=tire
It comes with a sponge applicator that lets you put the product precisely where you want it. The spray on tire shines always seemed to miss spots, you had to clean your wheels afterwards, and it can stain your driveway.
I have had this product on my tires for two weeks now, and it still looks great!! It is also not too shiny, just a nice black finish.

Re: Tire shine
great product!
i always stay away from the armor all tire stuff, just because it seems to attract so much dust and makes the tires so dirty a couple days later. does this new product attract it?

Re: Tire shine
I use meguires
It doesnt get dusty and last a long time,only power washing and beach sand /mud get it worn off.
I only do it every few months as its a waste to apply if your going to the beach or off roading within a week or two of putting it on.
You get about 3 or 4 aplications per can.
It also has a adjustable nossle for big tires

It holds up very well. There is some dirt around the edge of the tires, but not bad for driving on gravel 3 or 4 times. We will see how it holds up in Reno this weekend.

Re: Tire shine
I have been using Turtle wax tire wax. I gives a nice shine and doesn't splash aoff all over the place. If you just leave it on and don't wipe off it even gives you a greater shine.
