Richt very kindly let me try this tyre dressing at the weekend and I thought I'd post a brief report as the car's since covered close to 500 miles in a mixture of warm sunny weather and heavy rain, minor roads and motorways.
In appearance it's a slightly oily feeling clear yellow liquid. I applied to tyres previously cleaned with Virosol using a foam hand pad. I then applied Z16 as a topper without much hope of this product lasting (see my previous thread)
My before shot's not that good as I was concentrating on the paint instead  
This was taken today after the aforementioned journeys and I'm SERIOUSLY impressed.

The product I gave you was Autoglym Rubber Plus.
Super Sheen is the one which is the same as Vinyl and Rubber. | |

Shop brought Vinyl and rubber is the same product as Tyre Dressing but without the Lemon smell. The trade version off this product is Super Sheen -17. Which is identical to the Vinyl and Rubber, but sold in 5 litre sizes.
Rubber Plus cleans and gives a semi gloss look. It is more weather proof than any off the above 3. I use this topped with Super sheen. | |

I'd sure like to get hold of a tin of Super-Glym Polish and Powermax 3!

I have some Super Glym here, not impressed tbh. The sell is as Super resin with no cut but its not as easy on or off. Can send you some up if I can find something to put it in if you like?
Not sure which Powermax we have at the moment on the go will have to ask Rob my mate if he has any.
Alternatively you may be able to get it yourself. We phoned up the local distributor ( found on the AG site) and he agreed to come to us. | |
