dealer valeters eg master valet, autoclenz, motorclean use similar stuff, oil based liquid painted on the wheels which doesnt run if left to dry for a minute dont know where you can buy it from- try autosmart? foams absolute crap

Yeah treat yourself to a lambswol wash mit, nxt wash and nxt tech wax for starters although They probably sell all that down your local halfords

does this make them shine though - or just make them black

 

[Rich]

Yeah does both. Its not a very high Gloss though, If I want that look I apply AG Vinyl and Rubber after.

the lambswool wash mitt is an essential purchase

if you need some shampoo then get any of them, they are all good, my preference is probably gold class over the soft wash and NXT

NXT wax produces good results but has very poor durability in my experience

I have the Autoglym tyre foam/spray. Its not really a foam but it often goes all over the wheel as well. Does look good when dry.

Stick with Armourall, is piss cheap and does a great job.

 

[Little Newms]

Back to Black tyre shine.... works great for me

 

[cat171]

i used to use armourall, but i now used halfords own one, its on a light blue spray bottle.
it lasts a fiar bit & they do look wet.
