non silicone based tire shines are usually the best and last the longest.

Ditto on this product, only problem is they don't seem to sell it around here anymore.... so my dad orders it by the dozen and i steal from him.

Silicone based shines can fling off and stain your plastics and paint. Its happened to me on one of my other cars. Been over a year and still hasn't come off.

When applying the product or when driving? I use a piece of cardboard to put in the wheel well to prevent any overspray onto the body of the car. Works like a charm :thumbsup:

Hmm...well I wasn't the one who applied it. I had the car detailed (a Mercedes) and I asked why there was overspray all over my panels and plastic near the wheels. I guess they must have used too much or were in a hurry. Next time I'll tell them not to use any and I'll just do it myself. Thanks for the advice. :thumbsup:
