Whata the best longest lasting tyre shine?

CIVHEAD · 6th September 2006, 13:19

Any ideas?

Have tried many over the years and have so far found Meguairs Hot Shine Tyre Dressing the best. It beats their Endurance one as it has less of a tendancy to 'fling off' although their lasting qualities are very similar.

I would agree with Bassa, even after a long drive on the motorway through rain etc. the gloss was still there. If you wash the car regularly it will definately last between cleans.

Did mine today with Meguiars Endurance. Easy to apply with one of their 'applicator sponges'. Lasts for weeks.

Haven't tried their 'Hot Shine' yet, but I will when (if ever) this bottle runs out. Can't believe how little you need to apply!

comma definatley wins it for me and autoexpress

Yep, I agree, comma wins. I've also got Meguiars and a bottle of Diamondbrite stuff that's really good, but the Comma one outlasts the others and is cheaper.

Not tried Comma, maybe when the Megs runs out I will. can anyone recommend a good wheel cleaner apart from Megs Hot Wheels. I used to use the Turtle Wax stuff in the bright green bottle but I think thats acid based, well it descaled the shower really well.

Comma is good again for cleaning wheels. However, top tip is to give them a good clean then spray them with some alloy wheel coating stuff (I forget the name but I've got some in the shed) Black bottle, red & yellow label, made in america.

Then next time you wash your car, a sponge full of soapy water will do the trick. You'll never have to squirt wheel cleaner on your alloys again. It works 100000000%. ONE OF THE BEST THINGS YOU CAN PUT ON YOUR CAR! Costs about £8 a bottle from Wilco Motors.
