Owner reviews for tire shine

Turtle wax hybrid solutions graphene acrylic tire shine lasts quite a long time. Works best if you apply it with a brush, and it’s not too shiny.

I use Armor All Extreme. Just spray it on and walk away. No need to wipe any excess off. I do let it sit for at least 8 hours before driving.

Tooth brush and 91 isopropyl alcohol. detail with cotton swabs and toothpicks. use rubber or leather conditioner on the leatherettes. Chemical guys tire shine (the blue one) works well for vintage gear. Lens cloth to polish the plastic, micro fiber for the leatherettes. ROR lens cleaning fluid and Kim wipes for the glass.

Amazon has some decent internal trim that doesn't cost much. But one of the easiest and cheapest improvements is to keep your tires black and shiny. Turtle Wax Wet & Black is good and inexpensive.

I took some of the Chemical Guys "tire kicker tire shine" , sprayed on the pad and put a coat on all 4 tires. I drove for another week. Few days ago I was cleaning the car, and noticed the black tire splash marks on the lower part of the bumper. I wiped it off and noticed yellow stains underneath. I tried cleaning it for 30 minutes with everything I had, soap, clay, rubbing compound, tar remover, etc. Nothing worked. I then ended up going to my last resort and sanded the clear coat of the spots with 1500 grit sand paper, followed up 2500 and 3000 grit. I used the rotary buffer to cut and buff and bring the shine back. I was able to get them out completely. After extensive research on this I found out few facts: -Do not use petroleum (oil) based tire shine at all on white cars, it will stain your paint at some point. Only use water based tire shine (its more matte) -It was the chemical reaction of tire anti mold agent and petroleum tire shine that caused the stains. -It comes off metal painted pieces, its only plastic painted pieces that get stained (bumpers)

Stay away from Duplicolor Tire Shine. Its my fault, I presumed it was similar to Stoners excellent trim shine. It is not. I tried it and it completely discolored all the black trim pieces I sprayed it on.
