Ok, this is confirmed. Do not spray Megs Endurance Tire Spray onto a pad and wipe the tire. Yes, it dries faster but it doesn't last, not even 3 days if it rains everyday.

Spray the Megs onto the sidewall. Let it dry. Your tires would like some unholy white mess with the runny tire black liquid. It would also take an hour under shade to dry, but the reward is the shine lasts much longer than if you wipe on the liquid onto your tires.

But if you want to wipe, use the Megs Endurance Gel. The shine lasts even longer than the spray version.

good info
thx bro!!! smile_tongue.gif

What if spray direct on on tyre and then wipe, same as spray on pads?

I have not tried but I believe it would not the same because amount used would be different. You tend to use less when you wipe on tires.

I have not used paint brush but its bristles would be good to spread the gel into the tire threads, but the paint brush might not be as paint foam to apply on the tires. The paint foam I use is this:



They come into many sizes too. I use the small narrow foam to apply plastic trim and another to clean the crevices within the door jamb.

I've seen this at ace. Am going to use it for trims too. For tyres, I use sponge applicator from daiso.

I think that's where the problem is with Megs Tire Spray. Need to use a lot for lasting black.
