Best Tire Gloss? Like new car?

I haven't tried a ton of tire dressings, but I've been very pleasantly surprised with EcoTouch Tire Shine. I plan to do a review on it the next time I wash the wife's Pilot.
 
Chemical Guys VRP for the new tire look, IME

And the slinging from the other dressings is probably due to user error.

Make sure your tire is dry when applying the dressing and when your all done or before driving off you pat or wipe dry with a dedicated terry cloth towel. To help prevent sling.

Patting dry will leave the look (for the most part) and rubbing dry will make a more matte look depending on the dressing.

I usually like to rub the tire dry since it give the tire a more uniform look in the end.
 
Meguiars #40 is super sexy...

with a surgically clean tire it is deep and rich with just the most subtle hint of sheen.

Perfect for showcasing the wheels and paint!
 
Wolfgang Black Onyx..has a slight sheen

Well it sounds like they are all great, lots of good choices.

I have used PoorBoys Bolt n Bright and 303 Aerospace.

Optimum Opti-Bond Gel for glossy, or Meguiar's D161 (Silicone Free Dressing) for a more matte look.

Not to be rude, mate, but, you need to get closer to the subject in order to see the difference.
 
I found a bottle 32 oz. of Eagle One Tire Gel........... works very well and doesn't sling off after letting it dry. Only paid $3 !!!!!!! Wish I knew where I bought it, 'coz I'd definitely buy a couple more bottles.
It's not super glosssy. I put on two coats about 10-15 minutes apart and they look good. Not head whipping shiny, just nice dark and a satin sheen.

it's worked well IME as well (silver bottle before they changed it to the green), not a bad product and being available OTC is nice...

Agreed....... and when you add in the ridiculous shipping charges anywhere from $9 up to $13 for one single bottle.
 
I know it's not offered by AG but, it should be... Shining monkey no sling tire shine. It's main drawback is cost per unit but I have NEVER seen a product hold a candle to this stuff. If you just want a satin finish hit the tire lightly, if you want glossy, be liberal in its application. Never slings onto the car. They have a "full" line of products but the only thing worth your time imo would be the tire shine or they do have one product made specifically to detail cars painted in flat and satin finishes. If AGO used it's purchase power to get us better volume rates I would be ordering this all the time.

However as it stands I'm not willing to front the the kind of capital it would take to get a direct volume discount despite talking to their American sales director.

All this said has anyone tried Stoners tire shine yet? If so what kind of results did it yield?
 
Turtle wax tire coating. Forget the actual name, but it's in a black box. That stuff lasts a very long time.

I tried the Stoners More Shine an loved the look.

But it slings. I like the shiny look so I put on a lot.

I guess if you put one coat and wipe it down it won't sling. I didn't want that look though. View attachment 35099
