Best Tire Shine
If you want a good shine that is good for your tires and won't sling, 3 coats of Zaino Z16. Almost all OTC tire shine products contain a large amount of silicone which is where you get your shine. Its not good for the rubber over time. And IMO, SUPER shiny tires make the car look "cheap", gives it that "used car lot" look to it.
I always select water-based dressings, not silicone.

I've used Zaino in the past though, and you can not go wrong with their Z16 either.

Meg's Hyper Dressing Mixed 1 to 1 ratio. It does have insane shine and looks great. Will wear over time or exposed to the element but some cars that are always garaged still have a very clean finish months after using. All depends on how the car i used.
This is not OTC but something worth investing in.

Check out infinity Shield, water based clear coating. Tire looks wet doesnt fling off, lasts for months!!! I used everything on here mentioned and I will never go back! Tire has to be completly clean with no silicone on it at all when appling but the results are amazing. I stand behind it 100% just try it once and you will never go back if you like the shiny black look!

I like the meg's high endurance, and the grape smell is amazing. I just ordered some PERL, we'll see how it compares. I've heard nothing but good things about it, and it's supposed to last months, not days.
I use the hockey puck applicators and I usually only do one coat. Usually lasts a good while and no sling and non greasy.

I use to use hot shine from mguiers really wet look but hurts the rubber because of silicone. I like the matte look and use adams svrt it looks great and last long and helps protect the rubber and wont fling.
