Well guys I think I'll try the Meguires based on your recommendations. I was kind of leaning that way anyhow. Thanks for the responses!

I use the Meguiars Endurance also. It will sling, so use carefully. The shine is fantastic.

i agree with the above posts. for the easiest application, buy one of the eagle 1 tire applicators at your local autozone or pep-boys. the curved shape contours to the tire very nicely.

you guys really confuse me! I started a thread yesterday not knowing seeing this one asking the same question. all the replies were "DON'T GET ENDURANCE!!!". but all the replies on this thread are "GET ENDURANCE!!!" I am so confused I want to know what looks the best and what lasts longest. Here's the link to the other thread just so you can either reply to both or just straighten it out. https://www.s2ki.com/forums/showthread.php?...&threadid=66714

I've used some gel. I think it was Black Magic. I tried several different methods of applying, etc. Seemed that using an old sponge worked best. If you put too much it will sling. I put about a quarter size dot on the sponge and it pretty well covered one tire evenly and no slinging later. Typically, I wash the car, etc. and then it sets in the garage for a couple hours or more before I go anywhere though so I'm sure the drying helps. Looks great though in my opion.

I got tired of using 303 because I needed to apply it every week.
