Favorite Tire Dressing

Mothers Back to Black applied with one of those "Kiwi instant shoe shine sponges". Lasts a month or more of weekly washing and storms.
 
After all this i see it is just a matter of opinion, and what works best for everyone. What someone likes someone else doesn't.



No wonder we spend so much money, we have to try everything out! :)
 
Z16 for results and stoners for ease of use, but you need to wipe stoners to avoid sling. The cool thing about z16 is no sling, it dries and leaves a nice protective layer with a decent shine.
 
303: my fave but expensive, nice sheen, very good looking, black!

Vinylex: a bit more gloss than 303

NXT Tech Protectant: my favorite stand-in for 303 because of its looks and great price, need to reapply after every wash or rain, oily feel

Eagle One: just tried using this, looks good; already went through snow, rain and salty roads and still looks good. Glossier than even Vinylex.
 
water based for tire shine??? I thought the silicone based stuff was what gave u that longer lasting shine? Anyway i use Black Magic Tire Wet with a foam pad that fits the contour of your tire. Works great for me!

Yep water based tire dressing: Check out the following links for the reason why many prefer to trade off a little durability and shine for a safer tire dressing:
