That's the brand. It comes in a spray can and looks kinda generic, but on the back says NO petroleum distillates. I got it at Advance auto parts

Rep Power: 0 Do you guys clean your tires before you put this tire spray stuff on? Because my tires are grimey, they are like really brownish...and the tires stay black for like 2,3 days and then back to brown and grimey....and the thing is it's not like i drive in dirt or anything...only highway.

I am the head of the detail shop for my dealership. I prefer to use Pro products, while some other local dealerships prefer to use Car Brite products.
As for the tire gel we use at Honda, I posted it earlier.

This is the only waxing/washing system materials you will ever need for your car(s). No, I don't work for them, nor do I know anyone who does. I've been using Zaino products for years, and their tire gloss, and other waxes and cleaners are by far the best I've used next to Meguiars products.

Rep Power: 332 I used Eagle One the other day on my tires. Seemed to work well. i used the applicator they recommend with tires. tires were none greassy and a decent shine. i think more than one apply would have looked better.

I was watching a detailing show on T.V. and the manager of the shop said that the best shine for tires that last is regular motor oil...just rub it in and repeat two or three times that week...after a that, only one application every two is needed.
