    Best "wet look" dressing?

    I`m looking for a dressing to use on the tires and bed liner in my truck. I love the super shine wet look and want something that lasts more than a week or so like some tire gel`s I have tried, and I also want something to use on the bed liner of my truck. I have the bed liner sprayed over the bed rails and everything I use runs down onto the paint after even a light rain. I have tried meguiars blue dressing can`t quite remember the name and even a few otc tire gels, the shine looks good for a day or two but then quickly fades. Any suggestions guys? (was thinking about chemical guy`s oil based dressing)

    Give tuf shine tire clear cost a try. Ive had it on my tires since August and they still look good. You can choose the shine you want by how many layers you add.

    +1 on tuffshine
    stay away from oil based dressings, they attract dirt more than anything

    If you don`t want it running down the side of your truck then don`t use Mothers Back to Black.

    Auto Magic`s Cool Blue is pretty good and is water based so no slinging

    not sue if you can get it were you live but works great and smells pretty good too.

    I`ve nver tried it on a bed liner but the Dodo juice tire gel and Pinnacle Black Onyx Tire Gel works great on tires. It might make the bed slick though.

    Poorboys World, Bold n Bright. On tires its way shinny on the liner, I would use a cotton towel to buff.

    Or you could use on the liner, CD2 Engine Detailer. Auto Zone and the likes of those stock it.

    I`m not worried about the bed getting slick, I never haul anything, but after I did a two tone paint job on my truck, the flat black bed liner contrasting with the black paint started to bother me. Thanks for all the help guys, I`ll look into it all.

    That`s why I suggested buffing with a cotton towel

    While it doesnt have the wet look, as in super glossy I assume, Ultima trim and tire is a fantastic product. I use it on my tonneau cover, trim, and also round the rails on my bedliner and it last 3-4 months. With several coats you can get it glossy, but not dripping wet like Megs Endurance on tires.

    You could try the CG New Look Trim Gel, for the price it`s worth a shot.
