Best Tire Shine

I want one that leaves a decent shine,lasts long and doesn't sling like crazy, anything out there? Got to be otc to :up
 
Teflon tire is worth a try, i like it.



Megs gold class endurance hi shine and low shine are both very good.
 
Meguiar's Endurance is probably one of the better OTC tire dressings but it is a royal PITA to apply. It is just too thick!
 
Turtle Wax Tire Wax is my favorite OTC, but I haven't seen it in a while. It was on their website last I checked, but can't find it in stores.
 
The new Mother's Reflections tire shine is hands down the best shine I've ever found, OTC or otherwise. Apply it with a tire swipe and the look is amazing. The look is kind of hard to describe, but its "blacker" then any dressing ive used before. I dont know about durability, because I usually end up stripping and reapplying dressings every wash, but it seems to last alright on my customer's cars.
 
my current faves are (in no order).....



megs natural shine

michelin 3in1 tire shine

mothers fx tire shine



i've found that the white tire dressings as oppose to clear, work better for me with very minimal sling.
 
The best tire shine all comes down to what you like in terms of shine, gloss, durability, etc. There really is no "best", it just depends what your preferences are.



If you want low gloss, I would recommend Zaino Z-16, 303 Protectant, or Vinylex.



If you prefer higher gloss, then you can't go wrong with a product like Eagle One Tire Shine (my favorite!), Stoner's More Shine Less Time, or Meguiar's Hot Shine.

i have the TW tire wax foam spray version. i dont like it too much, i have to put aleast 2-3 coats to get the wet look i want, the spray goes EVERYWHERE and takes a long time to settle and soak in, and it only last 3 days or 4 at most. ive seen my neighbor use megs nxt extremem shine and it looks pretty good to me and it last 4-5 days. im going to try it out sometime.

I don't like the TW spray stuff either, I got a three pack of it at sams because it was cheap so I tried it out and it runs everywhere, so I use it for wheel wells. I like tw tire wax a lot, I like my tires to be very glossy and wet looking and it works real good for that.
 
NXT Insane Shine and ToL's Grape tire shine are both very good. I'll have to pick up some of the Mother's and give that a try as well.
 
I like:



Armor All Original

Zaino Z16

Mothers Reflections



The AA wins me over because it looks darn nice, has at least a week durability, is easy to apply, and it's the cheapest of the three.



Z16 is my absolute favorite, but it's price is high so I don't use it every week, just special occasions.

Yes, Z-16 is one that I use only on my car or on special occasions.
