I would like to recommend an excellent tire shine product that I just bought.

It's the Eagle One High Gloss Wet Look Tire Shine. I picked a bottle up from Canadian Tire for $9.99. Although I haven't tried any of the super expensive products, this is the best tire shine I have ever tried.

Here's a link:
http://www.canadiantire.ca/assortments/product_detail.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524441890007&FOLDER%3C%3EbrowsePath=2534374303517494&FOLDER%3C%3EbrowsePath=2534374303517515&FOLDER%3C%3EbrowsePath=1408474396670120&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=1408474396670120&ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=1408474396670271&bmUID=1122008266995

The best part of it is that it lasts quite a while, as I wash my car every week it is perfect because by the end of the week it is still looking good.

Just thought I'd recommend this stuff for anybody who wants to give it a try:thumbsup:

Meguirs shit is good for show stuff but not as good for daily driven cars in all weather.

Yeah I'm pretty cheap when it comes to products like tire shine. $10.00 is the maximum I will pay, and I use it sparingly. That is why I was impressed by the results.

I think I've tried every tire shine product ever made, and I've always come back to this stuff:Stoner's "More shine, less time" (http://www.autogeek.net/stontirshin.html)

I don't like gel shines because it doesn't get into all the nooks and crannies of the sidewall, and I don't like the liquid shines because it spits way too much on. I like the aerosol because it covers everything, doesn't cake too much on, cleans up easy, quick as hell, and looks good even if you didn't scrub + degrease beforehand. http://tinypic.com/987xwk.gif
AND it's cheap

The stuff we use at work is the best, although it comes in like 20 gallon jugs.

i liek the stuff turtlewax makes. goes on easily, and isn't too wet looking.
hopefully this tireshine doesn't leave a brown residue on my tires like meguiars.

Hmm I've had really good luck with the Meguiars pink paste. I put it on with an applicator and it tends to stay on for weeks, through multiple car washes and rainstorms.

I stick to the Amorall(sp) spray on foam. It also works well on faded plastic.

I use Armor-All Protectant Wipes, because I absolutely hate that "shiney tire" look. Lasts a couple weeks, uses maybe four wipes altogether (woohoo for lo-pros hahaha) and it doesn't turn your tires orange when it wears off.

Black Magic tire wet foam is what I recommend. Costs a little more though.

Meguiars purple grape smelly shit ownz, lasts quite a long time through washes/rain etc. Only stupid thing is that the applicator gets so greasy/slippery/sick so you have to wear a glove or really clean your hands after using it.

Yeah, the blue stuff? It looks amazing in showrooms, but doesn't last on the street though.
