Need a new Trim and Rubber dressing

As much as I love Meg's Hyperdressing for all things vinyl and rubber it's constant rise in cost every single time I go to buy a gallon is becoming unacceptable. It's almost $50/gal here locally and well over $40/gal once shipping is applied when I order it online. Just too expensive to keep in stock. I've tried 303 in the past. Not really impressed with it at all. And it can be rather costly too. Trying to find something that can be diluted down at least 4:1, I can buy in gallon sizes, smells good, last awhile, and cost $30/gal or under. (perferably less) The only thing I can think of is "TKO" by productions we used to use in the volume shops back in the day. But I really don't want to get into sub par quality products. I haven't tried any of the other dressing's from Meg's I need opinions guys. What is everyone else out there using that might fall into this range?
 
I use HD, but the ASD and the Silicone Free Dressing are nice too. Silicone free smells like a pink urinal cake, but it's better than the grape HD scent in my opinion.

I havent used it, but the water based dressing is usually the cheapest and can be diluted 4:1.
 
A buddy of mine sent me a sample of the water based dressing. Wish I took pics of it, left a very "shine" on the tires. I think you can use it on interiors too, though I don't generally dress interiors.

In my price range. Can buy in gallons... Wish it diluted down a bit better. But I think I might have to give it a shot and see how I like it. Thank Al.
 
but jake, if you are getting hyper for 40 shipped, and using it at 4:1, then its 10 bucks per gallon. if you get ASD at 30 shipped, and its 1:1 max, then its 15 bucks...hyper is still less expensive in the long run...

Actually, it's only $9 per gallon. 4 parts water, 1 part product. That is 5 gallons of dressing.
 
Going the opposite route of what you are searching for (bulk diluted dressing), might I suggest Black Wow? I've always found the results impressive, and the durability excellent. I pretty much do the trim twice a year on my car it and lasts. It also brings back absolutely beat trim. The quantities you can get away with using are absurd as well. A pea sized drop can easily do a square foot.



Of course, BW is only really for black/gray plastic trim, and more specifically the rough kind. Didn't really seem to do much to smooth trim for me, and it says specifically it's not for tires, so I haven't bothered.
 
I would just stick with HD if i were you its a great deal, I use it and ASD and love them both! But i do have a local Detail supply were i get great deals :)
