no sling tire shine

Chemical Guys VRP. Leaves a nice matte finish, drys to the touch, and is water based.
 
Surf City Tire pro, great matte finish, drys to the touch, is water based and when not raining, snowing I get 2 weeks or so durability.. A little goes a long way.. 2 sprays on a tire applicator for each tire.
 
Surf City Tire Pro would also be a good choice, but I havent used it yet so I cant comment on it. It will be the next dressing I try though.
 
Poorboys Bright and Bold and Optimums Optibond are both very nice and dry quickly. The gels and sprays seem to need a rewipe after first application or will sling on paint.
 
I use megs hotshine tire foam to clean, then spray with megs NXT insane tire shine. Seems to last quite well, and it doesn't fling off if you let dry.
 
DP Gloss Gel; Surf City; Opt Tire Shine and never get any sling. I up the odds in my favor by making sure tire is free of water, going over tire with paint brush to get rid of any puddling behind lettering/grooves, and giving dressing time to dry.
Almost any hardware store sells a natural hair paint brush called a chip brush. They are cheap. They are approx .79 cents for a 2" brush. One will last forever. I just carry it in my hip pocket when doing tires
 
PB BnB or WG tire gel have served me well. When it's a bit warmer I will see what Op tire dressing looks like.
 
I spray with AA foam, and let dry overnight. Long lasting good looks, no sling.
 
I also like the Wolfgang Tire Gel. I got a bottle free and think this is going to replace my Surf City stuff. At least for my car and mine and my old mans Vette that is.

Surf City will probably get used on my girls car her grandfathers truck, and all my friends cars that want a matte finish.
 
Optimum tire gel does not sling. It has taken the place of the Wolfgang tire gel, which now I use as my wheel well dressing.
 
Zep Manufacturing makes the best tire shine in my opinion. Tireless Shine comes in an aerosol form so you can add your own thickness. My advice if you don't want the shine to sling then after applying the product wipe the tires lightly with a rag.
 
i plan on using optimum tire gel next time, but for now i am using armoral extreme tire gel and its the bomb, no sling....and the guys at unique auto use it, so how bad could it be....
 
I used some of the Meguiar's High Gloss Hot Shine Gel and have never had a problem with it. As long as you put in on a dry tire with a thin coat you'll be fine. It really looks good with chrome or polished wheels.

AA Extreme Gel is all I use, but yes the applicator that comes with it is the bomb. Its a water based gel so its so easy to apply thinnly and evenly and doesn't get gooey'd up on my A/T tires like others as it's a watery consistency. Even if someone is against AA, its worth to buy it just for the applicator lol.
