What's a good long lasting tire dressing?

 

I used to use this stuff called Wipe New - Tires but it's since been discontinued.  There was a process.  First you soaped and scrub cleaned the tire, then let dry.  Then you don a 3M chemical filter cartridge mask, because no joke this stuff was noxious, then you applied just a teeny bit to the provided sponge and applied to the tire.  Go around doing all 4 then then come back and do it again.

The black lasted for a good long while...couple months before you had to do it again.

 

Is there anything like this still out there on the market?

I have tried a bunch of different types. All weather (rain snow etc). So far Adams tire armor wins hands down

I asked for Adam's Tire Armor for Father's Day.  :)

I've always been a big fan of Black Magic Tire Wet Foam spray. Applied to a clean, dry tire, it leaves a nice shine that usually lasts a decent amount of time - not months though. But it's pretty cheap and easy to apply.

According to my tire guy (one of the few jobs I’ll farm out) the wet look tire dressings soften the sidewall over time. I discovered this after he was changing out the metal valve stems on my X3 and the bead breaking machine popped right through the sidewalls  of 2 of my Pirelli Scorpions, and the first thing he asked was if I’d used tire shine frequently... food for thought.
