Go to Metal Polishes / Tire Dressing

[mobiledynamics]

I like clean cars - I hate cleaning them.....

2 things I hate most at the end of the day...and then some.
Dressing tires and Exhausts..

I can polish, coat, top the paint and it keeps itself nice and shiny for a decent while.
Tufshine the tires - it lasts, but it`s missing some POP...that benefits from a top dressing.

My current go to for metals is Heavy Metal Polish and Adams Tire Shine .
Just curious what are you go to`s for these areas

Same here, I love clean cars but hate dirty ones

Love polishing and applying protection to them

But hate cleaning the interior`s.

Tires and rims are not a problem for me, love the end result when their clean and coated.

I thing I hate is getting older.

On a truck that goes off road, I`d prefer Hyper Dressing over Gyeon (and maybe even NO dressing!)

I got about two weeks out of Optimum`s Opti-Bond (on a car that gets rinseless washing).

Bold n Bright is on it`s way for me to try out. And a tire coating sitting on my shelf for when I get more time.

the only off-roading my frontier sees is the recent construction which has turned into a muddy mess since its been raining for days here

I still have a lot of optibond but never really used it much - I guess I went to buying more products and forgot to see if I really liked it or not- lol

its a sickness

I like Optimum Metal Polish and Hyper Dressing.

P21S` products for metal polishing.

PB`s Bold n Bright for tires..I don`t thing dressings work on top of TS, if you ever plan on applying more TS.

Bold N Bright is better than Opti Bond

On the garage queen, TS followed by topcoat of TS whenever...TS looks great when fresh...

I don`t go ballztowallz cleaning tires - I`m a anti bloomer, so I do a mild cleaning whenever I do the initial 2 coats of TS.
For the 3 DD we have in the household, I rotate between toppers ontop of TS.

P21S - Have not heard that brand in a long time. Still using up my stashes of TAW in the engine. Washer fluid seems not on par - just happened to dig up a VERY old bottle of P21 WW fluid booster and dumped some into the tank. That stuff still works....it boosted it. We`re talking mayne a 12 year old bottle

Metal polishes
Optimum metal polish very good
Polish angel palladium best I`ve used.

Tire dressing
My favorite for a special car Swiss wax pneu
Daily driver gyeon tire a bit shiney after 2 coats so I buff down with dry MF. That messy.

My favorite is T1 for performance but it`s thick so the application is more work thanks the gyeon. It does however outlast the Gyeon and pheu

Poorboys bold and bright awesome performance as a fraction of the price of the above. Lasts like pneu not as Long as T1 and gyeon.

Meg`s Hyper Dressing for tires and I`m still looking for a good metal polish after trying out a few.

[PA DETAILER]

Gtechniq T-1 Tire. Lasts weeks and NO SLING!

[XxBoostinxX]

I like Optimum Metal Polish and Hyper Dressing.

I like Optimum Metal Polish as well. It doesn`t have a lot of cut, but when I need more cut I just go with Wenol Red. I still need to buy some Hyper Dressing. I love the way it looks.

Chemical Guys VRP for tires

[Accumulator]

Not sure what tire slime...I mean "dressing ... I`ll use if/when I finally use up all my accumlated gallons, but it may be the low-sheen Duragloss stuff (IIRC they push it for use on floormats too).

Oddly, I can`t recall *EVER* having my tire dressings sling. Not once in over40 years...not even back in the days of Armor All. I *have* had to clean off sling/dressing on new purchases though and/but I always blamed the guy who slathered it on.

I hardly *ever* polish metals, just get by with my accumulated stash of that stuff too (e.g., MAAS, Wenol, various chrome polishes, the NXT stuff, and English Polishes for aluminum). Never really been favorably impressed with any of those, always think there *must* be something better/easier.

Anybody use the P21s Metal Polishing Soap?

Speaking of P21s, I used some TAW on the Tahoe`s (coated) wheels and utterly filthy tires the other day, and it sure worked well! Forgot how good that stuff is. Basically never use it under the hood though, too likely to strip the stuff that`s keeping everything nice and I guess mine never get very dirty in there.
