Hey fellow G'ers. I am a baby G'er (only had my black G for 2 months) I am looking for the best tire dressing to use for keeping the wet look longer. I am curious what the rest of you use. Now if I could only get the front brake dust to quit messing up my wheels.

Any recommendations???


A clean, sleek G....

Must be G35_XTC

03.5S black/willow prem, aero, sport, tint

 

Two very highly recommended tire products are Meguiars and Eagle One.

Nothing I have evre used before has come close to the longevity of the Meguiars Endurance gel...at least I thinkthat's the name. You can go with a clean black look or add a little more for the shiny look, and it does last quite a while, weeks.

I use Meguiar's Endurance Gel also - works great. I use WheelWax (TM) to minimize the brake dust and make the wheels easy to clean. Brake dust comes off easy with a sponge and rags with just Meguiar's car wash solution and water.

Thanks for the tips. I will give them a try.

Any other recommendations?

Thanks again.

Now time to go back outside and check the install on my clear bra...

I tried this some time ago, I may have used it wrong, but it made my tires way too shiny, did I maybe use too much? I just like them "black, black looking" not wet looking! What do you think?

You probably did use too much. I take my time to get that black, wet look... not the oily shine. If you were to use less gel on the applicator, you should get your desired look.

I'll give it a shot! I don't know what they put on my tires when it was in the showroom, but it's great, just looks like they're black, been a month already and they still look great!

Endurance comes in a regular and a 'High Gloss' formulation. I've heard that the High Gloss tends to sling a bit.

Oh, hmmmm, maybe that is what I got, I'll have to check, I did have a lot of "sling" from it for sure, I had forgotten about that, I think that is the real reason I didn't like it, got on my wheels and really collected brake dust. (on my '00 Mustang GT)

IMO, any foam tire dressing works great. Make sure you dry the tire completely, and then spray the foam on the tire applicator. Use the applicator to wipe it on the tire. Apply multiple layers for a shiny/glossy look. Make sure you let it dry, before you drive the car. Prefferably, let it dry over night. The best part about this application is you don't get any overspray on the side panel of your car and doesn't create any mess. It only sticks to your tire!

dont' leave tire shine dressing on the clear bra. Prolong contact of the dressing will result in near permanent staining/yellowing on the bra. Use 303 aerospace protectant(303products.com) on the bra to give it a protective coating.

Meguiars, is the best I have used so far.

 

I like the Zaino tire stuff. oesn't fling all over and the tire looks good. Not shiny, but like fresh rubber.

The clear bra installer told me to just wax it like the rest of the car!
