Hey everyone,
Just wondering what tire shine you guys find to work best for a nice shiny finish without any drip or run off when driving. I hate it when i find little black specks that I have to wipe off even with the tire shine sitting on surface for 24+ hrs and only light coat.

Cheers

Very happy with this:

Gives it a very nice shine that's more of a deep matte, resembling a brand new tire that's just gone through a car wash. Not like those others that look like you've rubbed fried chicken grease all over your tire.

Not sure about drip fling. Honestly, all have the potential to do it. Just don't use too much and let it sit for a little while before driving. Personally haven't had any issues.

Chemical Guys VRP gives a very nice new tyre look. Not keen on the fried chicken grease look either..😆

I've tried them all and it still got all over the place but what I did find that helped was to wipe the tire with a cloth after applying, it takes off any excess product and leaves the tire looking great. I don't like gels, gets caught in all the little crevices, makes it harder it wipe off. I use a spray from griots garage

And the chicken grease coats the rims enough to get the brake dust needing Dawn dish detergent to clean them!
Good post - thanks for the suggestions!

The key to any tire shine in preventing "sling" is to apply it then wipe off any excess. Depending on the product used more than 1 coat may be needed to obtain the desired shine.

Simply spraying on and leaving it will likely result in the sling and specks that you are trying to avoid.

Thanks for the responses!
I actually use the mequires endurance gel and apply it with a microfiber cloth and go over to get the excess. I just find that after rain and a few days , you can tell where it is coming off

Adams tire shine. Doesn't make the tire look super wet. Gives a nice new fresh rubber look. No sling. Make sure you clean the tires with a tire/rubber cleaner to get all the dirt off to have a good base for the tire shine.

That's what I used...although it does slings a bit until it settles..not a big deal for me.

Nope. I like a mild shiny look.

I really like the Gyeon tire coating. But it seems to work better at higher temperatures (above 70F or so).

Can't believe it took this long for someone to mention Perl.

I have both Perl and Ammo Mud on my shelf, but prefer Perl.
