Tyre Shine

[scott_306]

i was talking to a boy today with a golf gti, the tyre shine he had on was absolutely gleaming!

he said it was called "re tyre" or something

anyone know anything about it or where to get it?

 

[Cormac]

the tesco's own brand of tyre shine is reali good!

autosmart chemicals do an amazing tyre shine, have to paint it on a dry tyre, leave for an hour or so.. but does look very very impressive

 

[Boydie]

i use meguires tyre gel (purple stuff) - amazing, lasts for ages on the car and the bottle lasts too

Elite Rubberite leaves a good shine, just let it dry first!!!!

Like the look of PoorBoys Bold & Bright, going to order some this week I think.

best ive found is halfords rubber and vinyl lubricant.

its not a dressing as such but leaves any plastics and rubber bits, tyres included dark and wet looking for ages my tyres lasted a week of rain and motorway driving!!!

Maguiars Hot Shine tyre spray wot i use. Does the trick.

that stuff is amazing, the 5lt tin i have has lasted over a year.

Concept Contour, where do you get that from? Just normal car shops?

Iv been using TurtleWax stuff for the tyres recently and it seems to last a right while (its a clear liquid in a squirty bottle with green top, cant remember the name) Expensive though at fiver a bottle and would do maybe a month or so.

meguairs myself also, but rubberite i used a few years back until i ran out, excelletn stuff, just a bugger to wait on drying


have the turtle wax stuff, used it once and relegated it to the rear of my cleaning collection under the "only if ur really desperate and theres nothing else on the face of the planet you cant use" section

silicone spray..............nothing else comes close............

 

[Captain Starlet]

Yip concept contour is the stuff. Works best if applied twice once the first coat is dry.

 

[Amos]

I have tried the Poorboys Bold & Bright this week, it doesn't leave it to wet looking, more a Satin finish... But by God it doesn't come off.. I found some products flick up the arches and look S**T....

 

[metro1800]

As said above, a tin of silicone spray. Even dashboard cleaner spray does the trick and all for a couple of quid

anyone else think different products give different results on different brands of tires?

 

[Jason]

yea i had uniroyals and they seemed to keep blackness far better than my avons!

 

[m00k]

[coyler]

any meguiars tyre shine is good.

I used to use that and then moved onto Williams F1 stuff that was £6.99 a bottle and hardly lasted when I had done my car and my dads car. Come round to mine sometime and you can have a blast on the Megs purple gel stuff, got it while back and tyres are still gleaming!
