Prhim Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 Can anyone advise on a good tyre dressing that isn't gloss? I've got the Meguiars gloss product at the moment and have gone right off it. What I'm looking for is something that comes up relatively matte, but still leaves the tyre looking super black. I've also tried a silica gel for the wheel - and while that leaves a matte finish, it doesn't really make the tyre 'black' enough. Thoughts / advice? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewNiceMrMe Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 I've settled on Meguairs Tyre Gel and managed to get the application off to a fine art now. It leaves a nice sheen between gloss/matt and I'm more than happy with it. I'd used the Car Plan Tyre Black (green aerosol) previously and whilst I had no real complaints about the finish it left I must admit it didn't last too long (that is, a can of it would last 2-3 weeks). The finish itself lasted well mind you. On saying that I get a good 2 weeks out of each application of the Megs Gel and I find that the bottle lasts an incredible amount of time. Indeed I've had it about 4 months now and it's still less than 10% used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnss8 Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 If you want a good matt finish the try Megs 38 from there pro range you can also use it on all the trim, depending on the finish you want either wipe it off or build it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McGee Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 Megs Endurance Tyre gel if applied correctly is hard to beat. Use old applicator pad apply to damp tyre leave for half an hour wipe off. Repeat process but not on damp tyre wipe off and your tyres will be looking like new and it will last for ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
