    Default recommend a good tyre shine please?

    Hi guys,

    What do you recommend please? And where can i get it? Ideally something with a really good shine to it, which dries and doesnt splash up cars sides and lasts pretty well?

    Cheers

    I use Megs Gold class with the pad applicator. It gives a really good shine, but you have to give it a few hours to dry properly.

    Also Megs Hot Wheel shine is pretty good and doesnt seem to need as long to dry.

    Best for me is Meguiars Endurance High Gloss Tyre Gel, spread correctly, i.e. not too thick and it doesn't splash and lasts weeks, really high gloss shine too - lasts ages too.

    Halfords (and other motor factors) sell it, about £10.
