...and not the kind that splashes all over the exterior paint when driving. :emotions122: Been happy using Mothers FX Tire Shine but want something with a little more lasting shine.

Any suggestions? TIA

I like using Black Magic. It stays shiny for quite a while and I haven't noticed it getting anything on the paint. I use it almost exclusively since I found it about 6 years ago...

Meguiars HOT SHINE Tire spray is what I use now with great results. I used to use the thick tire gels from black magic and others but they would always fly off the car and leave stains on my paint. So far I have had great luck with this one.

Yea I hate that crap. Every time I would take it to a car wash they would put some tire shine on. Looked really good and stayed shiny for a while but would get all over the fender flare's

Best thing I have used is Meguiar's Endurance, any of the gel stuff works the best I have found. But it's still good to buff off any excess after it sets in, gel or not.

just tried black magic tire gel which comes with a foam applicator and claims to last for weeks, just let it try for 15 minutes or so and it wont fling all over your paint, i really like it just not sure yet how long it lasts

I have been using it as well. Works great for the cost. I do hate the applicator process it is messy putting it on but better then the aerosol styles that end up all over the wheels.

I got some new kind. Turtle wax F2 spray foam. It's terrible. I hated applicator kind with tires this size it takes forever. Might go back to the good ole armor all foam.

Megs endurance in aerosol can, its extreme gloss and wet look for aprox 2 weeks then it matts out to a pure black for months.

can wipe it after spraying to remove alot of the wet gloss if you like..
