I'll have to go against Stuart and say I like the Meguires Gold High Endurnace tyre gel. The first couple of times I used it it took a little time, but once I worked out how to use it, and how much I needed I found it a doddle. It obviously takes longer than giving a quick spray with back-to-black etc, but I find it looks more impressive and stays shiny for much longer. The bottle also seems to never go down much, even though I use it all the time I've had the bottle two years and still loads left lol.
Chris, I never said I didnt like the megs stuff I just prefer the tyre slik. If I was given either I'd be happy as larry!
