tyre shine Products.

Ive been using Meguires tyre gel for a while now, but I cant seem to get the shine back into the rubber, it just turns out dull, matt and not very black. not a nice deep black as it used to, i always scrub the tyres when washing, but since my tyres have had a few 1000 miles put on them, they dont come up as well as they used too. any ideas? different products?

i also find the tyre gel works brilliantly on plastics and window rubbers.

Use Poorboys Bold and Bright, even after it's lost the gloss they are still black.

Blackfire gel for me, albeit I have never used Poorboys. A lot of pros use the Blackfire though, and can be layered to enhance the look. Sometimes I use a layer of Chemical Guys New Look Vinyl dressing after just to add to the gloss look.

Blackfire Long Lasting Gel or Poorboys Bold and Bright for me depending on my mood!

i use AG tyre dressing, leaves a great finish and doesnt cost a lot either

Megs hot shine does a good job, just a bit messy.

Does look good, always use it on mine at shows - just does not last day to day.

I put a small bit of AG Vinyl & Rubber Care on a sponge and rub it on the tyre....only a half spray and rub it on.

FYI - AG Vinyl And Rubber is the same product as the the Tyre Dressing but with some lemon smell.

I've been using Megs Endurance which gives a good shine, but I've been finding it doesn't actually last that long at all! Turtle Wax gel actually gives really good results when left to dry, gives a really good shine after 15 minutes on the tyres, doesn't look that good when being applied.

I've used the Turtle Platinum Series gel and it does work surprisingly well, really dark colour, not too glossy and fairly durable. Not the best though!

How sparingly do you apply Megs Endurance gel? I always find it splattered up the side of the car after the first drive. This happens even when I leave the stuff to dry for 12 hours + :S

im usuing megs edurance gel, but no matter how much i put on, the tyres dont want to go black anymore. Its only reall the fronts, as the backs seem ok. yes it does splash up if you put to much on.

Found the sme aeven applied very thin and buffed after. Also was a dust trap so I stopped using it.

found the simonex stuff is quite good, i spray an applicator and then put it on and leave to dry, lasts well enough, clean the car every week so . . . lol

AG- Tyre shine! Tried lots of other ones! Whilst AG is messy it's the best for me!

 

[Rich]

Shame it does not last.

Recently tried Einzett tyre spray just spray on foams up and cleans as well. very easy but not much durability and not much depth of colour

My fave is Chemical Guys Liquid Extreme Oil Shine Dressing....its ace, no run off, can be applied in layers 12-24 hours between for a deeper shine..

Will last weeks if need be, tho if applied weekly it doesn't matter.

Gives a good gloss without attracting a lot of dust.
