I read a ditty about that stuff about a year ago, I think. The review - to my recollection - stated that it was pretty sticky stuff and sucked up the road dust/grime.

Let us know what you think about it...

Good deal! Good report. I'm not much on many aresol products (although, Stoner's makes some decent stuff) but, maybe you've found a good one...

I too like a lot of Stoners' products but their tire shine never quite did it for me.

FTR, I started using Meguiar's® All Season Dressing about a month back, grabbed some off a neighbor who initially recommended it to me - after reading THIS thread - and have been very impressed thus far. May have found a winner...

I tired Meguiar’s® Hot Shine™ Tire Gel in the past but didn't like the finish. A little to "blingy" for my taste and the "slinging" didn't impress me.

Isn't Meguiar's® Hyper-Dressing water-based? Poor longevity, correct?

Mine is holding up quite well. Even after several washes and a few decent rains the tires remain very black. They aren't as shiny as they were when first applying, but are holding up very well. They seem to keep dust off better than anything else I've tried as well.

Thanks again to JP for turning me onto this stuff.

I think I've tried just about all of the Tire Gels available, and have yet to find one that I'm really, really, really like. Of all of them, I prefer Detailers Pride Tire Gel.

In the end, I always find myself going back to Zaino Z-16 Tire Gloss. It is a little expensive, but with all the money I spend trying other stuff, I'm better off just sticking with the Zaino Tire Gloss. Plus, it doesn't sling, and doesn't attract dirt... and I like the look.
