Just avoid overloading it else it also has a tendency to spatter!

Concept contour is fantastic but hard to get

Gives a long lasting wet look

I really like the gtechniq T1. gives a nice satin finish instead of the wet super glossy look of others.

It wouldn't be fun if it was easy, I just wish it wasn't this much fun.

Bouncers Dress to Impress. :happy2: Really good stuff that will also will do Plastic external trims aswell as internal plastics and of Tyres walls.

Meguires is rubbish, messy and an oil splatter mess after a drive.
Used to use it all the time till I've used other products.
For a wet more natural look then Zaino Z16 is another good product.

Meguiars Endurance is very good and long lasting just dont overload it otherwise it does sling everywhere

Are you after a spray application or gel?

I prefer the gel, find it easier to apply and keep it contained to the tyres. Sometimes a spray can drip over the wheels and even hit the paint.

Meguires endurance is a good mention. My go to at the moment is Juicy Details Iced Apple Tyre Gel. Great finish and smells good. Its abit thicker than the meguires so easier to apply without it dripping off the applicator.

Let us know what you end up getting :)

Another vote here for Gtechniq T1 Tyre and Trim. Wasn't fussed at the start, but if you put it on right, it's great. Also have used AMMO Mud, giving similar results - very little or no sling from both

I like using chemicalguys VPR dress. The effect can last up to 2 weeks.

Best thing to do with megs is after you apply it say 20mins use a old cloth to give the tyre a wipe, no sling then.

Best one I've used is valet pros black to the future love the finish it leaves on the tyres and can be used on black trim etc nice beading too  :happy2:
