Default What kind of tire-shine product doesn't splash up onto the car?

I'm currently using something to shine my tires (I think its Mothers tire shine or something like that) which LOOKS good, BUT the stuff kicks up on to my car door when driving. I love my car, but I do get tired of having to wipe the doors (not willing to buy splash guards).



I used to use some foam tire spray by Armor All. It didn't kick up onto my doors, but after about 3 weeks of once a week washing the can is empty.

the last time i was in pepboys i got some black magic tire gel and a wheel sponge, works great and you dont get the tire gel all over your rims when you apply it

gotta agree with crazhorse, this is all i will use, you don't have to spray it so there are no runs, you apply the amount you want and it won't splatter unless you use on ton, then its your fault.

we came out with this new stuff at turtle wax, its called tire wax. its thicker and not liquidy so it doesnt splash. shines great too. what ive always done is put on a thin coat of the liquid stuff on DRY tires let it dry and do anohter THIN coat, let that dry and use an aresol "spray shine" to seal it. if your tires are dry and you let it dry between coats its last long and doesnt splash.
