What is a good tire spray not a gel to use? I have Surf City and Jax Wax tire spray, both are good I am just looking for something different. I need a spray not a gel .. I have Multiple Sclerosis and it is hard for me to stay bent down to apply the gel, I like the spray that I can spray on and just wipe it around

I like Blackfire AIO Trim & Tire. Has cleaners in it and leaves a nice finish. In your case, you should also give Griots black shine tire & trim a go. Its an aerosol that you spray on the tire and after a minute just sort of wipe with a microfiber to smooth it out. Its very easy, just have to dial in your technique so its not super shiny (for my tastes snyway).

Go and get a Harbor Freight HVLP gun and an inline pressure regulator. Then get something such as Meguiars Hyper Dressing or Nanoskin Blue Dress and spray your tires and wheel wells to make it easier on you. You'll be able to dial in the pattern and pressure to get good and even coverage.

Armor All Tire Foam. Best of all you don't even have to wipe it around afterwards. I suppose the Meguiars Hot Shine Tire Foam would be similar, but I've never tried that 1.
stuff is great.
I scoured these pages for a simialr answer a while back and followed advice about Turtle Wax Edurance tyre shine.. it had been exceeding eveyones expectations (turtle wax have has so many crappy products.. )
It was locally available and on sale so i gave it a try....
Fair play it looks perfect with one coat, last a long time (as in months).. and was cheap

I second this one. I love this product. I spray it on an applicator and then wipe it around the tire surface. It dries quickly, so you never have to worry about it slinging off. Applying it a couple of times a year to rubber floor mats works well too as it isn't slippery or oily.
I use this: TURTLE WAX® JET BLACK™ BLACK ENDURA-SHINE TIRE COAT KIT. I have back issues and have difficulty bending over for long times also - I pay the price afterwards.
Comes with a bottle of tire cleaner, applicator, plastic gloves, and black liquid tire coat. It's a bit messy to apply. I actually pull my wheels onto the grass when I apply this stuff as it can stain the cement if you get in on. Likewise, I mask off my wheels as it can stick to the wheels and it's a bear to get off. That said, I haven't found anything over the counter that works as well. I put 2 coats on after cleaning the tires (10-15 minutes in between coats works fine) and the tires look great for a long time (unless you scrape a curb). But if you do happen to scrape a curb, just pull out the applicator and apply some more - no need to re-clean the tire. I've had it last all summer on one of our daily drivers and it will still look pretty good after a northern Illinois winter. On the garage queen, I've had it on for 2 summers and still looks good. I'm sold.
Autogeek may have something comparable or even better (clear maybe instead of black?) but since I've found this I haven't been looking for other tire products.
For those of you that have used this product, have you found something comparable or better?

IMO it's as good as it gets. You really shouldn't have to mask off your wheels.. What I've found that helps is to flush the applictator clean with water after use making sure to squeeze out all of the excess product and allow it to air dry. This makes it alot more manageable and less likely to create a mess the next time you use it because the foam applicator isn't all stiff with the dried on product.
