What is the best stuff for getting tyres looking like they've just rolled out of the showroom?

ads, i got some stuff for christmas in a giant pack.  i dont know if u can get it separately but its turtle wax,  wet n black.  this stuff is remarkable.  

infact it looked so good on mine , dizzie asked me to spray some on his tyres  

[eyeletboy]

agree with vix .that's what i use and it seems pretty good

[Speedydub]

thats fookin gud stuff. i'd spary it on a cloth first tho, so as not to get it on your rims

I've used amourall tyre shine or something like that, piece of p1ss to use, its ?4.99 and it's in a big can, its a foam that you just spray round the wall and walk away, brings it up like it's out of the showroom, just make sure that you haven't just cleaned your wheels as the foam runs down them but it just wipes off.

I might have to try the turtle wax stuff though by the sounds of it

agree with the turtle wax wet n black, great finish and lasts a week.. but yea dont get it all over your wheels (or wipe them off after) because it makes the brake dust stick like tar.

Tried various stuff in the past such as armorall, but the latest is Autoglym bumper care. Comes as a green gel and you just put in on a cloth and wipe over. As long as your tyres are clean to start with it lasts ages and each time you wash ther car the tyres come up well. Not a specific tyre cleaner but it does say it can be used on tyres....might actually try specific tyre cleaner made by Autoglym, or turtle wax as it sounds good

I have to admit that lately I have been using a ?1 bottle of Astonish vinyl and rubber cleaner  

Gives a nice matt black finish tho

get the Turtle Wax tyre gel and paint it on using a paint brush.

lasts for a good month

Sprays are sh!t as they fade after a few days
