Never understood why people put so much concern on longevity of tire shine? Like does it really matter if your tires are super glossy one week later when the rest of your car probably won’t remain clean at the point anyways
Thanks for featuring Auto Fanatic Holeshot we love that stuff however customers have been asking for a higher gloss single step version so we developed one. We have been sending out samples for feedback I need to get you some this week to hear your impressions. The overall sheen and finish is always a matter of personal preference some like satin, some like gloss and some like in between. The one thing about our dressing is the sio2 chemistry does deepen the tire but also helps bond to the pores of the rubber making it last pretty long for a non solvent or acrylic based formula.
I've been running Adam's Graphene Tire Dressing for about 8 months on my 2021 Ram 2500 in the south Texas sun. It lasts several weeks, and gives a semi-gloss look when applied per the directions. You can apply a second coat to give a very glossy look. I apply it very thin and it gives an even more satin finish than the application Pan shows on this video. The key is to apply it on a bone dry tire. I have found that it applies better to a warm surface as well.
I also have been messing around with the stuff and you are exactly right however I’m waiting to see what the rain will do I live out here in California and you know we don’t get rain anymore.
I just recently switched over from VRP to Blue Guard by Chemical guys! Much easier to apply, and in my opinion gives a nicer sheen than the VRP. You can buff after application to a light sheen or leave it for a glossy finish. Very versatile for plastics and floor mats as well! Plus, it smells amazing.
Lately I have been using adams products for the tires & continue to be impressed with their tire products. These Informative videos are much appreciated pan. 👍🇨🇦
Hi Pan, Pearl is my go to for my detailing business for several years now. I got the Adam’s when it first came out and used it on some two of my picky customer cars. They came back and asked for that product “Adam’s” they noticed a difference. So I now have added to my supplies. It seems to last longer than Pearl and VRP out here in Oregon. As always thanks for the great vid.
I'm not in to shiny tires but some people think that's the only appearance for a finished look. I use Perl straight(Adam's hex tire applicator) on a really clean tire and wipe down after maybe 30mins. The second wash followed by another layer of Perl makes all the difference. I may not apply any addition layers for the next two washes. It just works.
Matte finish Extreme Solutions. Used Chemical Guys VRP today on a friends Nissan. Looks great, easy to apply, leaves an OEM appearance. I will buy it again and again. Looked nice on my black plastic trim on my Jeep too.
303 aerospace protectant remains my preferred tyre dressing. The fact that it's aimed at providing protection against UV, leaves a nice satin finish and price point makes it a winner IMO.
@@Take12music I think 303 should be put on first and after a week or so you can put something else on top. 303 penetrates the rubber while others stay on top of it.
Very pleased with the Adam’s Graphene Tire Dressing. Similar to other viewer comments, the longevity has been very good, especially with all the rain we’ve seen in the southeast. If you want a satin look, just give the tire a quick wipe with a microfiber towel. Since it is a water based silicone, you can mix in CarPro Perl for a bit more gloss. Their applicator (that you used with Extreme Solutions) works very well also.
I only use Longevity as of now. It lasts 3-4 weeks and my cars are outside all the time. You can make it glossier if you apply a second coat. Love it so far.
I personally like the meguiars Gel tire shine and also DarkSide tire shine they are both really good and also the meguiars one has a really nice scent easy to apply and everything

I just tried the Fireball, huge disappointment. Takes a bit to apply and some areas did not want to cover well, gave a great wet look, after 12hrs still wet, slung off. Had just used retyre to clean the new tires. Could blame the sling on over applicantion, but after just 60 mile of driving in (70 degree sunny weather), it now looks matte and some areas are patchy. The Adam's is far superior in all regards.
The Adam's Graphene one is my favorite of the 4. I like glossy ones but the Fireball is a bit too extreme in that sense IMO. But maybe it's a sign that it would decrease a bit over a few days or weeks therefore look better and last longer than the other 3, so it would be interesting that you make a new video that would feature longevity tests. Do you think that this could be done? Also as you requested, I would like for you to test Opti-Bond Tire Gel as well as McKee's 37 Gloss Tire Gel SiO2 Enhanced please. By the way, are all the ones you put to the test water-based? :-)
My personal preference is a satin finish, so I prefer the Auto Fanatic or the Xtreme Solutions of the four you tested. My go to is Aero Cosmetics Rubber Care. I needed a product to restore a tyre that was turning brown and oxidised. Found Aero Cosmetics Rubber Care on Amazon with 4.5 stars and 2000 reviews. Gave it a shot and never looked back! It restored the tyre instantly and looked great! It gives a nice dark satin finish, conditions and protects the rubber, and lasts for weeks! So durable! I think it was developed for the aerospace industry. Would love for you to put it in your next test Pan, I think you'll like it! Nobody ever mentions it in these tests and I think it's the best out there. Great vid as always Pan!
Tire dressings for me have been a pain because I have an offroad truck with big, knobby sidewalls. For 3 years I used Gyeon Q2 Tire because it lasts 3-4 months. But it's greasy when wet and can be streaky if not done carefully, but done with care has awesome look. 7 months ago I switched to Lone Star Tire coating and really like it. A little easier to use than Gyeon, not as greasy, looks about the same and easily lasts 6 months plus.
@@t.i.o.motorsports243 Lone Star has their own website. They were supposed to get on Amazon, but I haven't looked recently. It's an acrylic coating, just so you know.
A great comparison. I agree with your choice of Adams - best blend of gloss/satin finish for sure. The issue I run into most is cleaning/stripping old coatings - so I am always hoping to find the "best" cleaner. The cleanliness of the tire is 90% of the final look as you mention.
Auto Fanatics looks great but Adam's is close for me. As for what i currently have used, Chemical guys Tyre Kicker and Meguiars. I do have Carpro Perl at home but have not yet tried on tires. Also wanted to mention (unrelated) that i get much of my supplies from carzilla, they are in Calgary so great to support fellow Canadians :)
I know a lot of people don’t like Chemical Guys, but I do really enjoy using their VRP for tire dressings. gives a great finish. it doesn't last super long, but it's great for what I'm looking for.
Great video Pan, I truly got a good picture and understanding of all the tire dressings featured in this video. My personal favorite of the bunch was the Auto Fanatic Holeshot. The perfect blend of satin and gloss for my liking!
The appearance of Xtreme Solutions is fantastic. Look at the lettering SCORPION and VERDE ..they are clear and pop out. Just not sure of durability or how it stands up to the environment over time. Use a paint sprayer and wipe up any overspray on the wheel and if outdoors on a windy day may have to wipe off the car.
I like the added 50/50 idea instead of doing a whole tire for the test! I've really been trying to find a good tire applicator (tried so msny), but can't seem to find an excellent one that fills the lettering on my Michelin ps4's without slight smudging after my first drive (*hint for a video, best tire dressing applicator). Thanks for the content Pan
Have you tried regular circular micro fiber or the Terry applicators? I've been thru 15 different ( Applicators) and found that regular applicator pads work perfectly and are way easier to mold to the tire.
I personally like the Adams, I would really like to see how they perform When you have to clean your wheels with a wheel cleaner and how long will it last
I drive a truck and it sees a lot of dirt and gravel roads, I dont really care for the shiny dressings so the Xtreme solutions might be what I pick up next! Thanks Pan!
I love the vrp and I also use the auto fanatic. But the adams looked good as well so I'm gonna have to try that too. Adams always offers coupons if your subscribed to their emails

I use the Fireball gloss coating,quite viscous to apply on off road tires.Longevity quite impressive,I applied on my pickup tires in May and the tires as of today are starting to lose its darkened look.
To me most, if not all, tire dressings look alike when first applied. Ya there's subtle varying degrees of difference. Personally I don't care for the glossy shiney look on tires. After trying about 8 different products I tried Griot's Black Satin tire dressing..it's a spray can. I applied it then rubbed it a bit with a cheap micro fiber towel. It's been 6 weeks and there's still visual evidence it's there. It's a muted satin look as if the tire is new and showroom ready. Quite impressive long lasting product.
@@PanTheOrganizer I was looking for best tire dressing on Google search. So I click to videos and your video was one of the ones that was there. You have awesome videos, very detailed and very informative. I recently bought a 16 challenger. So I have to detail it. Big turtle wax fan also. Been watching you videos on that line up. Can't wait to see how that review on that permashine. I'm skeptical on ads that come off Facebook. That's awesome you responding to your viewers.

My current favorites are Gyeon Tire and Carpro Pearl. The Gyeon dressing can last for multiple wash sessions as long as you do not scrub hard with a stiff brush. Its a little too shiny but acceptable. The Gyeon Pearl has a fantastic matte finish, but not as durable. However for the price and the fact you can use on exterior trim and interior panels and seats at different dilution ratios. its a winner. I would like to see you review Fireball"s satin wheel wax.
Xtreme Solutions is my style but would pick either Auto Fanatic Adams for those wanting a bit more sheen. I too have started with VRP and still think it is a good product but finding the 303 Tire Shine a really impressive product.
I have tried Adam’s and Auto Fanatic. Depends on your preferences, but the reapplication of Adam’s after cleaning the tires is best for me. The dirt gets removed, but the Adam’s kind of lingers on/in the tire…so it is already “primed”. Not much product needed when you reapply.
They all last 2 to 4 weeks for me. Durability isn't of outmost importance to me, as I clean my car twice weekly, and application is a breeze. But there are too many variables for tire dressing durability: prep, application, what environment you're in, where you live, mileage driven, garage kept vs kept outside, daily driver vs weekend driven, etc. If durability is the most important thing for you, skip all dressings, and go for a tire coating. They cost way more, but last for months. Like CarPro BlackOut I tested on my channel.
I might be in the minority here but I LOVE the Fireball SIO2 gloss levels. That tyre looked like a glazed donut, just perfect. I went ahead and ordered the Fireball SIO2. Hope it lasts at least a full week.
If you prep the tire properly, it should last a few weeks. Welcome to my channel.

I have a small patch of dirt road before I get to my driveway, I do go slow. I want something that the dust will not stick to, but keeps my tires looking black no grease....
Both the Fireball and Adam’s for the right shine if you like. I have been using Dura coating for longevity and it works really good in all weather conditions. The shine does fade about 2 months about 30% but you can reapply to bring the shine out. I would love to try Adam’s or Fireball on top of Dura coating tire dressing

Oh cool! I used to have a BMW 435i xDrive Gran Coupe M Sport (then moved on to BMW M550i and now my Porsche 911 Turbo S). Here's the video I had made to present my 435i to my audience: ruclips.net/video/RdskiGKn_Wk/видео.html
@@PanTheOrganizer as a said, I have the 420d,2018 x drive done a standing start, will not believe this, 6.4 sec, too 62 mog, the book says 7.3, naw bad is the any tips I can do or send mee ,would 😉 appreciate your input...
J’utilise Blackout de CarPro. Un peu trop mât mais très résistant. Merci pour ce test, je voulais essayer quelque chose de plus lustré, pour une fois que tu me fais économiser de l’argent! 😁 Je vais acheter Adam’s la prochaine fois, beau rapport qualité/prix. En espérant qu’il soit aussi résistant que CarPro.
I like the 303 tire coating in the spray can. It is one of the few that leaves a satin finish in spray can. Having a truck with tires that have big aggressive tire walls, a foam applicator pad would take a lot of time to apply evenly. With the 303 you spray the tire, wipe off the over spray and forget it.
I'm currently using VRP but I have Fireball High Gloss in my cart before watching this as I wanted a product that lasts longer, now I don't know. 🤷🏻♂️ Will you have a longevity update since this was filmed in August? 🤔 It would be interesting to see the whole tire coated and one half side buffed, especially the high gloss, to see how that changes gloss levels and longevity compared to the other. I'd be more inclined to get a higher gloss if it had a longer lasting and perhaps diminishing shine between applications.
Fireball is a great choice to me it’s better than VRP my opinion everyone always ask me what I use and I use the satin I used to use the adams that’s my #2
I tend to like a glossy appearance on my wife's Volvo S60, and a Satin finish on my workhorse Tundra. I have been using Chemical Guys VRP as my "all around" dressing. Of the 4 tested, I would lean toward the Adam's if selecting only one. Thanks Pan!
I love rich black, but not gloss... I typically keep Perl on the shelf just due to its great versatility on tires, engine bay, & interior, but I may have to give that Longevity a shot. I use a few Xtreme Solutions products, and haven't been disappointed at all with any of them.
Yesssss!! So awesome! On Tuesday, April 30, we will likely surpass one million subscribers! Almost 8 years to the day, since I started my channel on April 26, 2016. Thanks for your continued support!
Maybe the test should have been divided into oil and water based products. Fireball has a water based product called Trim & Tire which is not as glossy but sets to a completely non tacky finish with a high SiO2 content. It also defines Tire surface details better. Fireball also has a super glossy tire dressing with a pearl added for a highlight appearance under certain lighting conditions called Tire SiO2 Janus. A comparison between Fireball's 4 Tire dressings would be a good watch.
The Auto fanatic won it for me. thats how it comes out for me but i have to use 2 products and let it dry, while you only used 1 product. i like how its soo dark but it reflects light so it looks natural.

I would love a 1 week and 2 week check in on a test like this. That way you can see the longevity of four different dressings all on one car.

Yeah like that's my biggest beef with tire dressings. Like what's it look like after a week or two

just my $.02, I love a deep shine on my tires. I've always used a quick spray such as mequires, but after this I may try an si02 tire coating.
Phil, Pan and Brian r my favorite car detailing ppl. Great insights and they always answer my questions. Screw everyone else.
How does this perform on whitewalls or white rubber tire letters? Many products make the whites turn brown. Does this do the same?
I've been running Adam's Graphene Tire Dressing for about 8 months on my 2021 Ram 2500 in the south Texas sun. It lasts several weeks, and gives a semi-gloss look when applied per the directions.

Adams is the winner. Adams detailing products are great.
Hi Pan,..I am going with Adam's graphene.Thanks for the presentation.
Good choice!
I use the Fireball gloss coating,quite viscous to apply on off road tires.Longevity quite impressive,I applied on my pickup tires in May and the tires as of today are starting to lose its darkened look.
Try using a paint/detail brush for large rugged tires works awesome
@@FireballUSA I did and also a fingernail brush to coat
does this sling?
I just purchased some carpro Perl tire dressing. Haven’t had a chance to use it but that fireball is insane😲😍😍🔥🔥
I really like PERL diluted 1:1 for use as a tire dressing.
I have used the Auto Fanatic for a couple years. It holds up well foe several weeks. All their products are very good. Thanks for this review.
Thanks for sharing your experience.
Hands down, Adam’s Graphene. Cost and results were the best. I’ll be ordering it.
Looks like Adams tire dressing covered the best
C'mon Tony
To me most, if not all, tire dressings look alike when first applied. Ya there's subtle varying degrees of difference. Personally I don't care for the glossy shiney look on tires. After trying about 8 different products I tried Griot's Black Satin tire dressing..it's a spray can. I applied it then rubbed it a bit with a cheap micro fiber towel. It's been 6 weeks and there's still visual evidence it's there. It's a muted satin look as if the tire is new and showroom ready. Quite impressive long lasting product.
I personally likes the Auto Fanatic the most
Well as im driving on gravel roads alot, the one dressing i prefer is Hamburger Dressing !!! 👍👍👍
Can you do P&S Shine All performance dressing?
Out of the 4 the Adam's stood out as well for me.
Thanks for watching Larry. How did you discover my channel by the way?
@@PanTheOrganizer I was looking for best tire dressing on Google search. So I click to videos and your video was one of the ones that was there. You have awesome videos, very detailed and very informative. I recently bought a 16 challenger. So I have to detail it. Big turtle wax fan also. Been watching you videos on that line up. Can't wait to see how that review on that permashine. I'm skeptical on ads that come off Facebook. That's awesome you responding to your viewers.

I like the Adams Graphene Tire Dressing best.
My current favorites are Gyeon Tire and Carpro Pearl. The Gyeon dressing can last for multiple wash sessions as long as you do not scrub hard with a stiff brush. Its a little too shiny but acceptable. The Gyeon Pearl has a fantastic matte finish, but not as durable. However for the price and the fact you can use on exterior trim and interior panels and seats at different dilution ratios. its a winner. I would like to see you review Fireball"s satin wheel wax.
"The Gyeon Pearl" - you mean Gyeon Q2 Tire or Carpro Pearl?
Gyeon tire and carpro perl
Xtreme Solutions is my style but would pick either Auto Fanatic Adams for those wanting a bit more sheen. I too have started with VRP and still think it is a good product but finding the 303 Tire Shine a really impressive product.
I have tried Adam’s and Auto Fanatic. Depends on your preferences, but the reapplication of Adam’s after cleaning the tires is best for me. The dirt gets removed, but the Adam’s kind of lingers on/in the tire…so it is already “primed”. Not much product needed when you reapply.
Fireball satin for me.
Agree it’s our favorite 🤩
extreme solutions looks good, curiosity on the longevity of the Adams
They all last 2 to 4 weeks for me. Durability isn't of outmost importance to me, as I clean my car twice weekly, and application is a breeze. But there are too many variables for tire dressing durability: prep, application, what environment you're in, where you live, mileage driven, garage kept vs kept outside, daily driver vs weekend driven, etc.
If durability is the most important thing for you, skip all dressings, and go for a tire coating. They cost way more, but last for months. Like CarPro BlackOut I tested on my channel.
Great video.
I was given a bottle of Jay Leno’s tire shine. It’s ok, I’d rather use VRP, it’s cheaper and it lasts longer for me.
Thanks Butch!
Adams definitely
I would have to say: Adam’s for all around. But for the glossiness I would say: Fireball?
Fair observation 👍🏻
Xtreme Solutions and Auto Fanatic look the best to me because I prefer satin tire dressing.
Definitely agree with you, Adam's Polishes is the best of them all, their VRT is also a great product for tires.
I might be in the minority here but I LOVE the Fireball SIO2 gloss levels. That tyre looked like a glazed donut, just perfect. I went ahead and ordered the Fireball SIO2. Hope it lasts at least a full week.
If you prep the tire properly, it should last a few weeks.

@@PanTheOrganizer They now last a few weeks !! Wow
I use Chemical Guys Tire Kicker, its cheap and gives a great shine. Its also water soluble so it washes off easy during my weekly wash.
I have a small patch of dirt road before I get to my driveway, I do go slow. I want something that the dust will not stick to, but keeps my tires looking black no grease....
Both the Fireball and Adam’s for the right shine if you like. I have been using Dura coating for longevity and it works really good in all weather conditions. The shine does fade about 2 months about 30% but you can reapply to bring the shine out. I would love to try Adam’s or Fireball on top of Dura coating tire dressing
without doubt, 1st Adam's.....2 xtreme sol. 3 fireball, 4. Auto fanatic......

@@PanTheOrganizer got a new BMW, 4 SERIES GRAND COUPE, SO JUST LOOKING THINGS UP PAL.....XXX
Oh cool! I used to have a BMW 435i xDrive Gran Coupe M Sport (then moved on to BMW M550i and now my Porsche 911 Turbo S).
Here's the video I had made to present my 435i to my audience: ruclips.net/video/RdskiGKn_Wk/видео.html
@@PanTheOrganizer as a said, I have the 420d,2018 x drive done a standing start, will not believe this, 6.4 sec, too 62 mog, the book says 7.3, naw bad is the any tips I can do or send mee ,would 😉 appreciate your input...
J’utilise Blackout de CarPro. Un peu trop mât mais très résistant. Merci pour ce test, je voulais essayer quelque chose de plus lustré, pour une fois que tu me fais économiser de l’argent! 😁 Je vais acheter Adam’s la prochaine fois, beau rapport qualité/prix. En espérant qu’il soit aussi résistant que CarPro.
Koch Chemie Plast Star or Plast Star Silicon free are my go to favourites, can highly recommend them.
I will have to try that one.
Crystal Products Untouchable Tire shine IS what my customers like but I like 2 coats of VRP the best for My personal vehicles
Adams FTW 🏁.. 3-4 weeks durability in CA and the smell, which is part of the garage therapy process for me, is unmatched. 👃🏻
Garage therapy! I like that! 😁👍🏻
@@PanTheOrganizer Good smells and a RAD Garage soundtrack and I'm in the zone.
I like the 303 tire coating in the spray can. It is one of the few that leaves a satin finish in spray can. Having a truck with tires that have big aggressive tire walls, a foam applicator pad would take a lot of time to apply evenly. With the 303 you spray the tire, wipe off the over spray and forget it.
Holeshot looks pretty good
I like VRP after every wash super easy with a hex sponge application.I do use 303 before I store my summers or winters
Pearl 1:1 is my fave.
I think you'll like Autoglym High Performance Tyre Gel.
Auto Fanatics for the looks but Adam's for the ease of application.
I'm currently using VRP but I have Fireball High Gloss in my cart before watching this as I wanted a product that lasts longer, now I don't know. 🤷🏻♂️
Will you have a longevity update since this was filmed in August? 🤔
It would be interesting to see the whole tire coated and one half side buffed, especially the high gloss, to see how that changes gloss levels and longevity compared to the other. I'd be more inclined to get a higher gloss if it had a longer lasting and perhaps diminishing shine between applications.
Fireball is a great choice to me it’s better than VRP my opinion everyone always ask me what I use and I use the satin I used to use the adams that’s my #2
Longevity will be weeks into months with proper prep
I tend to like a glossy appearance on my wife's Volvo S60, and a Satin finish on my workhorse Tundra. I have been using Chemical Guys VRP as my "all around" dressing. Of the 4 tested, I would lean toward the Adam's if selecting only one. Thanks Pan!
I like the label design on the autofanatic products
It has an old school '90's vibe to it. Pretty unique in the field.
I think Adam’s did the best job in my opinion with gloss and even application. Great review!
Thanks!
I love rich black, but not gloss... I typically keep Perl on the shelf just due to its great versatility on tires, engine bay, & interior, but I may have to give that Longevity a shot. I use a few Xtreme Solutions products, and haven't been disappointed at all with any of them.
So close Pan. Probably 1,000,000 by the time i wake up!!!
Yesssss!! So awesome! On Tuesday, April 30, we will likely surpass one million subscribers! Almost 8 years to the day, since I started my channel on April 26, 2016.

Tire shine: Please test 1- TriNova Tire Shine Spray No Wipe, 2- Car Guys Tire Shine, 3- Street Legal The Ultimate Wet tire Shine.
Please!
Maybe the test should have been divided into oil and water based products. Fireball has a water based product called Trim & Tire which is not as glossy but sets to a completely non tacky finish with a high SiO2 content. It also defines Tire surface details better. Fireball also has a super glossy tire dressing with a pearl added for a highlight appearance under certain lighting conditions called Tire SiO2 Janus. A comparison between Fireball's 4 Tire dressings would be a good watch.
The Auto fanatic won it for me. thats how it comes out for me but i have to use 2 products and let it dry, while you only used 1 product. i like how its soo dark but it reflects light so it looks natural.
