Tire Shine Review

Yes and No. Your tires will probably wear out before even the worst type of tire dressing can do any harm. There are many products that contain "safe" silicones and are water based products containing UV protectants that one may choice to use with little threat of doing any damage.



I am with you about applying "anything" on my sun exposed dash. But then again their are products that offer dressings that actually help protect the dash. Normally, I just keep this area clean using a damp MF and once a year apply a thin layer of 303 Aerospace Protectant ( water-based and "good silicone") and buff any excess.

Looks great Silversparkle! I'm looking for the "silverbullet" ;) for the red basecoat clearcoat on one of my cars.

There is no mention of petro distillates on can. It does state that contains some form of silicone ( good or bad :nixweiss )
 
Thanks. I emailed and called and left a message but I'm sure due to the weekend that they probably aren't around. I would think it would say on the can so thanks for looking.

That is exactly the way I see it. I don't understand why people think that they are going to ruin their tires by using solvent based dressings on them. My brother who has worked at a tire shop for about 15 years tells me that he rarely sees tires with cracked sidewalls even though many of his customers regularly use cheap spray can tire dressing. Most of the tires that have sidewall damage are several years old to begin with.
 
That always makes me chuckle, my tires die from abuse alright but not from shine sprays, if I ever had a set of tires that lasted long enough for that kind of damage to show up I would be happy to write a report on it but so far.........

I agree. I use as one of my products TOL tire dressing, and it is great. I have to try tire shine after reading all the great reviews.
