I get good results with Stoner's "Trim Shine". This product is marketed for trim as Stoner's has a specific tire shine product but I find the "Trim Shine" works great and I like the convenience of a single product that works well for tires as well as all black trim.

I recall back in the day before armor all and the like, my dad used pledge furniture polish on the tires of his car to dress them up. It did a very good job without giving the tires a greasy or too shiny look.

You can achieve two finishes with our tire shine:

Apply our Tire Shine to a clean, dry tire and dress with an applicator for a deep, dark finish.

Or, spray the tire liberally and let the product fully dry without using an applicator to achieve the ultra high gloss look. Note: you may want to go over the tire once with an applicator to catch any of the product that may be pooling in the tread blocks or grooves after the majority of it has dried.

How Does It Work?

First, make sure the tire is cleaned with our All Purpose Cleaner. Then simply spray the outer tread blocks with a light mist of our new Tire Shine on a dry tire. Follow this step by grabbing a Block Sponge or Hex Grip Applicator and spraying directly into the applicator. Use the applicator to apply a thin even layer across the tread block and the face of the tire.



NOTE: This product is designed specifically for tires. If you are looking to dress trim or are more interested in a low shine tire dressing please take a look at our Super VRT.
