What really is the best tire dressing?

[hdjeff]

Ok, I'm sick and tired of slinging tire wet. I've tried many brands and no luck. So let hear what you suggest, I'm lazy so I dont want to wipe on a gel. I think the best I've ever experienced was made by Dupont but its not made any more. Just frustrated after re-cleaning the truck after shining it up.

I am in the same boat as you I have the tire wet gel. Looks nice but if you go to wash the truck again it is a PITA to remove. I usely just spray some tire shine on and let the truck sit for a while before driving again.

I have about 6 different types of tire shine right now. I just keep watching Autozone and trying new stuff that comes out. If I find a good one I'll let you know.

I found one not long back, at checker, that is a spray, and it remains on there permanately. once it dries it's good to go. I use it on the rubber floor mats in the pete. I don't know what it would do at the carwash myself(I Don't take the hose inside the truck obviously) But I know that it holds up real well ot alot of dirty foot traffic. I can't remember the brand name right now, but I'll get it and get back to you.

Mop and glo, it is really good on interior floors.

meguiars tire shine with the adjustable nozzle. Goes on almost like black spray paint from the looks and lasts about as long.

The stuff is called tuf shine, it comes in a two bottle kit w/applicator for the tire "clear coat". seems to work pretty well to me, but i'm from the old school. we always just put armour-all on 'em. Let me know what you think, sounds like platinum might already have it!

No I use mop and glo on the dash, keeps it nice and tacky. So the loose odds and ends don't slide around so much.

No Touch Tire Care by Permatex is the best stuff I have found.

I use Meg's Hyperdressing and have little to no sling. You just spray it on work it in with a rag and then buff it off and it will last a month on my truck. You can dilute it to get the desired shine any where from a mat to shiney finish. The other nice thing is that it does not attract dust like most other produce will.
