Two totally different types of dressings.
In my opinion, Hyper Dressing looks better. Even with a high gloss dillution, it looks more even, and since it has a thin viscosity, it spreads very well to the point that every section of a surface, when dried, looks even and dressed.
Eagle One's new tire shine is a gel. Think enough where it can be sprayed from a bottle, but thick enough where you can squirt it lightly around the tire and it'll hold. Once you spray it onto the tire's sidewall, you need to use a foam tire swipe and massage it into all the grooves well, if not you'll have missed areas. One plus on this, is that even when I over applied and did not buff off, I still did not get any sling. It dries to a hard coating.

I'm newer at this and need to know about the masking tape thing... What type do you use and how do you use it? Thanks!

I use 3M green masking tape. I prefer it over their blue painters because it adheres better to surfaces. Unfortunately, it also leaves more residue than painter's tape.
I use it for a number of things. I use it on the hood seams to block out dust from getting into the clean engine. I tape over emblems as to not gunk them up or let them catch my pad and chew it up. I tape off plastic areas so I don't let my pad spin over it and possible burn the plastic. I also tape curvy sharp edges and can possible burn if my tilted pad came in contact with it.
Its a measure of precaution is all.
