Tyre Shine on Ovni Yellow...

[Spanky]

Ok, been bugging me for ages now, I wonder if anyone has a solution.....

Whenever I use tyre shine on my car, wether it be spray type, wipe on etc... when ever I drive my car afterwards (have left it 24 hours in some cases) the shine stuff sprays the side of the car.... a bitch to get off, do other Ovni owners have this problem..? If not, and you use tyre shine, what do you use..??

It happens on all colours, doesnt it? I know it does on mine

You need to go for something that isnt greasy really as if it doesnt soak in then it will spray up the car and its SO annoying when you have just cleaned it

I think the only type that is not greasy is the foam type in the spray cans?

Fair point, not just Ovni...... hmmm, foam ones... which do you use..?

I have bought quite a few over the years and have the same problem with them, i have a 'Foam Spray' and a 'Meguiars Spray' at the moment but if you dont let the 'Meguiars Spray' soak in it will spray up the car! The foam one pretty much just puts the deep black back in the tyre without leaving a residue on them, it all soaks in and leaves the tyre with a 'Dry' effect which is just what it needs

Its just in a can called 'Tyre Foam' or something like that, from Halfords

You could spend more money but i dont think there is any need to for something like this

I use the Autoglym Tyre Dressing and I've not had any problems...

Yeah i think i have used that too and its ok (quite thin white liquid that sprays on if i remember right) but i would still go with a foam spray to be honest

i use poorboys bold and brite, no problems and have also used meguiars endurance tyre gel, that seemed fine aswell....

.. maybe your putting too much on?

 

[FinerDetails]

try applying, leave for 15 mins, then wipe excess off with some kitchen roll/paper towel ;-)

I think you're probably right, but will try the ones listed above.... cheers all

Do you wipe the excess off? I use megs tyre gel and if you follow the destructions you have to wipe the excess off. The only problems i ever have now are on really hot days afters its just been done.

I find for the best results if you put it on, leave it then clean the tyre again with water it takes all the rubbish off and leaves you with a more realistic finish. My tires look best after the second or third clean

i used autogly tyre dressing and thats never left anything on my car aprt from when i apply it in the wind it dries well and give a really good shine!

Turtlewax wet look works well and doesn't seem to spray, also strangely enough makes my typically pink rear calipers red again

armour all is the foam one from halfords, just spray on and leave, et voila.
