Meguir's Endurance or Zaino Z-16. Looking for gloss and length time it stays. Protection is good too. Woops, forgot to ask if any one know of the Zaino rep for Maryland. Thanks.

Of all the store bought tire dressings I've used, which is a bunch, they sling all over the sides of my car, last a few days at best, and make cleaning my rims impossible with foaming cleaners. The same goes for Meguiar's Endurance when I tried it. So, I had completely given up on tire shines for a long time until I tried Zaino Perfect Tire Gloss. The shine isn't ultra glossy, it's more of a satin natural look, which I like. Also, it never slings on my car (a BIG plus), my wheels are still easy to clean up (another BIG plus), and it really lasts for several weeks before needing another coating. If you're truly looking for gloss, you can add several coats of the Zaino Z16 to increase the gloss.

OR, if you want another option, I've heard of people using Turtle Wax Formula 2001 Tire Gel in a bright green bottle. I've never tried it, but it gives a glossy sheen and supposedly won't sling. I'm happy with Zaino so I don't need to try it, but thought I'd share anyway...Turtle Wax Tire Gel

Ive used the Mequirs, it dosnt sling at all. Quite easy to use, and i like how it looks. I am planing on getting the entire Zaino line this summer, and was wondering if the Tire gloss was worth the order.

 

I love how the Megueire's looks and stays and doesn't sling and lasts, but... it tends to get caked on in the crevases on the tires. It has gotten so bad that I have had to take a tire brush to it to scrub the hell out of them get the "plaque" off.
The Z-16 doesn't do that. It does last a long time, but is more of a satin look than a glossy look, although first day on it does have gloss to it. Plus it doesn't sling ... The Zanio is the way to go IMO.

Sounds like my order to Zaino just got a little more expensive.

Does anyone know of a Zaino dealer in Maryland??
