Continuing my life long struggle to findi the perfect tire dressing, I will often fall for good packaging and clever marketing, only to always be disappointed. I've yet to find a great tire shine that lasts for more than a few days. And I have tried many. well my latest attempt came today when I purchased "Maguire's Hot Shine Relection Tire Shine". their claim as to what makes this product the best of the bunch is the fact that they infuse reflective material into the product which is supposed to make your tires shine and be more reflective. Hmm, haven't heard that one before, so not knowing what else to buy, I bit.
Finally i broke down and detailed my Envoy today. I went the whole nine yards, with washing, claybarring, cleaning, polishing and finally waxing and buffing it. I did all of the trim with some trim restorer, and i even waxed my windows. The final touch for me is always to shine the tires. so after all of my hard work and after applying two coats of the new tire shine, I ended up with a really clean, shiny 2006 Envoy with tires that look like the meth head up the street went wild on them with a bedazzler. When the sun hits the tires, they glitter like the XMAS ornament my 5 year old made for me at school. WTF? I mean it really looks ridiculous. it had set in for a while before I decided to try to remove it. And of course I finally found a tire dressing that didn't come off easily. I'm so excited to sit in commuter traffic tomorrow with my tires sparking like a disco ball.
