Anyway, I used to use some Eagle One stuff that came in a tiny bottle and applied with a tire swipe. Worked great, didn't sling. I haven't seen it in a while, so I have some Meguiar's Endurance tire gel. Still use the tire applicators though. I love 'em, and it makes it easy to not apply too much which in turn results in slinging it everywhere.
Haha, when you said extremely expensive I was thinking hundreds of dollars.. and in my head going "dammit, I already spent too much on detailing stuff already.." |
thats what i was trying to say, old tire spray or gel were mostly silicon based wherein nowadays most companies have changed the formulation to avoid the brownish discoloration that results from those types of tire shine products.
