Tuf Shine Tire Coating is really good stuff...just harder to apply on truck tires that have aggressive sidewall. I have some McKees Tire Gel and I am going to give that a shot...won't last nearly as long but should be really easy to apply.

I have. A few years back before I found AGO. It looked good for a few days, and that was it.


Another vote for PERL undiluted. Applied this to my (clean) Ram tires on July 23rd. Two coats about 4 hours apart. Loved the look. Tiny bit of gloss, but not ghetto. Fast forward to today, and they still look incredible. Mind you, we have not had much rain out here on Long Island this summer, but this stuff is still going strong nonetheless. Just an awesome product.

(Would be remiss if I didn't credit my buddy custmparty for the recommendation on this).

Adding in my thoughts on the Turtle Wax Jet Black Endura-Shine Tire Coat Kit:

Used it today on the Audi and like it so far. Cleaner that comes with it does a decent job but I did break out some bleach white and hit the tires again just to make sure they were cleaned off good.

As the product warns, it is like water and a little goes a long way and it does squirt out almost too easily. I put three coats on but perhaps should have stopped at 2 seeing as how it went from satin to gloss.

Leaving this on for time to tell how long it will last. Here's a quick peak at how it looks.

Welcome to the darkside. Lol.
3 coats is the best way to start. I also use other cleaners, but I like to finish with the supplied TW tire cleaner, especially when starting new [probably doesn't matter much but it makes me feel better]
From here on out you can clean your coated tires with something like Megs D143@2:1 [just spray on and rinse off. No scrubbing] if they become a bit dirty and you decide to clean them during your normL maintenance wash. If you don't have that I'm sure Megs D101@10:1 would work as well. Megs D114@1:128 works great too.
Keep us updated.

I washed her up again this morning and it worked out really well. I have McKee's coating on my wheels thus just a few sprays of Griot's Wheel Cleaner and a strong hose-off got the wheels nearly perfect. Tire wise, I have a MF Mitt that I use on my wheels and is dedicated to them thus I just dipped it in my bucket when I finished the car and wiped off the rubber, rinsed and they are like brand new again. She's out in the driveway and looks like I just dressed the tires.
