Autozone has been the only traditional retail outlet for the Michelin products.

Any AutoZone should have it, maybe an O`Riely`s ? You can also try a Big Lots if there is 1 by you. I picked a few bottles up there a few months ago, about $ 3.00 each, don`t know if they will still have any left. It`s a GREAT product !!! Good Luck

Thanks guys!



I went to O`Reilly`s by my house. They had the Tire and Wheel cleaner (step 1) and the Brake Dust Repellant (step 3). I asked them if they could order it and they indicated that they could. Should have it Monday!!

Great BlackPT: By the way, the GMC folks have a Saturday Night Cruise (All Makes & Models welcome) in Blue Springs MO from 5:00 Pm till dark. I`m thinking of going over just to get the Mach 1 out of cobwebs LOL.

How much does it cost? I`m thinking of either buying Michelin Tire Shine or TWP tire shine aerosol spray.. Anybody know the durability comparison between the two?

the michelin tire shine lasted a long time for me, when applyed to a clean tire, also if you want it to last even longer apply it with a PC and the white pad it comes with.

the shine is very nice btw, matte with only a slight amount of gloss

Picked up 2 bottles of the Michelin 3 in 1 Tire Shine last night on my way home from work. Cost for a 24oz bottle is $6.99. Have yet to try it because of possible rain.



Do I need to follow the directions on the bottle or can I either spray it on the tires and wipe off or use a foam brush or paint brush to apply?



Thanks!

BlackPT: I use a foam applicator to apply mine. I don`t like overspray on the wheels and/or driveway using a spray can.

Totoland Mach - Do you spray in on a foam applicator or do you pour some in a cup and apply it like you would "paint to a wall?" In the past with several products, I`ve poured them in a cup and applied it to the tires via a paint brush/foam applicator. I like the way it goes on and I can regulate how much and where it goes. Plus, I can get the bottom of the tires next to the pavement/surface they are sitting on. I may try it with this product to see how it goes.



I appreciate all of your advice and help!

I typically use a foam applicator (sold in most automotive sections) that has a slight curve. When I get to the bottom of the wheel, I roll the vehicle approx. 1/2 weel turn to get that area.



Give your way a shot and holler back
