I personally dont like tire shines because they seem to splatter on the car once you get moving. That's been my experience with them at least.

Superior Products - Cover All (aerosol). Great for tires and all black trim. Not goopy and does not run.

Shine Supply Decked Out, dilute for preference. Apply and let sit and you wont get sling off.

Diluted CarPro Perl. Darkens the sidewalls but not too glossy. Looks more natural. However, don't use tire shine if you track the car or are one of those who drive it in a "spirited" way on public roads. Pretty abrupt and sudden loss of traction.

tufshine tire clearcoat. Not that shiny super wet look but a nice satin finish. Last a decent amount of time for me as well.

The problem isnt the tire dressing. It is the residual water around the inside of your wheel & tire mixes with the dressing and doesn't dry fast enough.

I finally broke down and bought a little blower from Chemical Guys. I cant believe i didn't get one sooner. It has virtually eliminateS the flinging of dressing. RECOMMEND!!!!

Yup, It's excellent and it's what I use. It just sprays on from the can and there's no drip or sling like you get with gels.

Meguair's hyper dressing!!

Not too much shine, just the right amount IMO, and it doesn't splatter everywhere!

I've always used the Zaino stuff because it doesn't sling and it's not too shiny.

AMMO Mud is pretty good - not a ton of shine, but doesn't sling much either.

But my favorite is Gyeon Tire. Not much sling and definitely more shine than the AMMO Mud.

Dodo Juice Tyre Wax. Dull or shiny depending amount of rubbing. It lasts for months and does not come off and mess stuff up. It's an actual wax.
