CarPro Perl is my go-to. And as mentioned above, wipe off excess.

I use BLAK trim restore on my tires, but only on the outside. Never on the tread. No sling when dry and lasts for a long time between rain showers and simple detailing.
Note: It is a very thin liquid so be careful. You should wear gloves and apply somewhere other than your driveway to prevent staining from droplets. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B005P...UTF8&psc=1 |

Duragloss 253.
I've used CarPro PERL, Optimum Opti-Bond Tire Gel and others, but Duragloss is the most durable and best looking one I've tried. Don't let the cheap price be a turn off, it's a great product. Trying to go for a really shiny tire look might be part of the problem. Dressings which will load up on a tire to make it look really shiny will tend to sling vs those which are designed to darken the rubber and give it a more like-new/dark satin appearance. However some will look more shiny-ish after a couple coats, but won't sling. |

Ive been using Poorboy's Bold and Bright Tire Gel for years. With any type of tire dressing, make sure the tires are properly cleaned to give great results.

I used alot of tire product on my cars and by the look of it and my experience any product applied to much and not cleaning excess will be sling of to the side of the car.
I say just get the cheapest and rub it on the tire and clean off excess. There is no need to get those fancy tire shine that has promises printed on the bottle. It don't make sense they last just a week on rainy days and 2 to 3 weeks during summer. |

I’ve used a lot of different product throughout the year but hands down my favorite has been Gyeon Tire. Doesn’t take much product and the look is perfect. Not too great not too matte. Their formula contains sio2 which is the same chemical in ceramic coating for paints. A second favorite would be Meguiars hyper dressing. Economical and you can dilute to the look that you want. Plus you can also use this for a variety of other areas (interior, black plastic, etc).

I'm using Carpro Perl, mostly because it can pull multiple duty on a bunch of different things based on dillution. 2:1 for tires, 5:1 for interior / engine. You can do a 2nd coat on the tires if desired, but I usually just do 1.

I just got some 303 non-sling tire shine for Christmas. Can't wait to try it out this weekend.

Depends on the look you like.
If you like a matte, non-greasy natural look I'd use Griot's Vinyl + Rubber Dressing. Works well on trim surround, engine & cowl plastics, etc. |

I came across this product at the Chicago Auto show last year, and it has been amazing. You only can purchase from their website. No sponges needed, and goes on really well without nearly any additional fling.
