Another happy Endurance user. I've used more types of tire shine prods than I can remember. The Endurance works well - lasts for quite a long time and even smells good.

Well, I got my "Shiny Tires" and application equipment. I applied it last week following the steps on the bottle and using the info pikka gave me. I must say, this stuff is amazing. The tires look great (I'd saya LITTLE less shiny than when i used Meguires Hot Tire Spray) and the endurance of the shine is incredible.

I have washed the car twice since application and all that is required of you to bring back the original shine is a wipe down w/ a wet sponge or cloth. This product requires alot of work up front (scrubbing the tires down to remove all old silicone based products and dirt) but it is well worth it in the end in my opinion.

Because the product dries almsot instantly, there is absolutely NO spin off onto the paint. Another advantage to thisis the fact that teh application can be controlled (unlike spray on stuff) so none gets on the wheels either. In addition, I have driven in both rain and snow and the product remains of the tires. I believe it is well worth the effort to apply up front to keepo my tires looking great 365 days a year.

Meguiars Tyre Black gel is the best product I've used. Most of the products I have used can cause runs which get onto your wheels and leave black streaks everywhere.

The Meguiars product is thicky than that and last a lot longer IMHO with an overall better look

Scott,

I am glad you liked the products, it lasts forever, I applied mine over 2 months ago, and it looks as good as the day I applied it. Just like you said all it takes is a wipe down with a wet sponge to remove the dust that makes it look dull and its back to new. I am going to apply another coat this weekend to one wheel, where I hit curb.
