I like DP gloss tire gel. On BOGO on auto geek. Really like the tire cleaner as well. If you want something longer lasting they have a tire coating also. About two full moths out of the coating.

Adam's products are amazing. If you want a new tire look (satin) their VRT Dressing is great. If you want a higher gloss you can go with the Tire Shine. Spray on and leave to dry and wipe off for high shine, or wipe off right after spraying for medium shine

Yep, ordered this stuff last week, ARRIVED today. Can't wait to try it. I've been using Black Magic products both the gel and the spray over the last few years......Time to try something different...............
I've heard nothing but good things about Adams Products!

Adams Super VRT here for a clean new tire look, UV protection & no sling. Just not into the wet or high shine look. Do not care for spray applications. Like said, start with a clean tire with all old dressing removed.

X2, not a fan of armor all. Your tires turn brown after a short wile and I've read that it does not protect rubber. VRT is very good and not shinny.

I never liked armour all. But the new stuff is radically different, it doesn't brown the tires, and it's available cheap at the local store.

I haven't used armor all for many years, you are probably correct.
I've been using VRT and like it. VRT can be mixed with water 50/50 and
sprayed in hard to reach places. Like black plastic trim. But does not last as long as full strength.

Looked at the CarPro Pearl site. Looks similar to the Super VRT. If buying Adams stuff, they should have a sale soon for Valentines day.

I use the Chemical Guys TVD102 tire dressing. It's thick stuff that I usually mix with water then spray it on the applicator. It seems to do a nice job and I really like the look.
