Where about this product available ? Any pic of the product and pic of dressed tyre ? Need to see how much gloss it can bring out.

Ps : apply multiple layerS of M21 will make your budget gone faster. If it works, 1 or 2 layer will do wink.gif



Magic 101 on Yoko S-Drive tyres



Magic 101 on Falken FK452 tyres

Any difference? Looks the same.....

I tested the one sold under Eneos brand coz got 50% discount. Cost me about $3.50 only but after one round in the rain all gone. My guess it's water based... smile_dead.gif

Maybe need to try out Meguiar's Endurance gloss next round smile_big.gif

The Eneos house brand tyre shine ( 180ml ) @ RM 3.50 = tak boleh pakai. One rain and all is gone.

I am tempted to try those no-name tyre shine used by road side car wash operators ( in 500 ml mineral water bottle ) @ RM 7.00 in Jalan Pasar. Wonder who has any first hand experience to share ?

Those are water based too. I saw one tyre shop just add water to dilute it. For them it is to make the tyre look shinny when you change tyres. Not for you to last.
Road side car wash also same. After car wash to make your tyre shinny.... smile_shock.gif

The Magic 101 is made in USA
When on offer was quite cheap. 500ml around RM11 (I think) Now maybe RM18 to 20 (Not sure)

The other one I told you is RM9.90 for 295ml is Son-of-a Gun, also Made in USA product.
I have Waxco, don't quite like as it is more like thick cream type and a few other brands.
You can come over and I will shine one tyre with Magic 101, one with Son-of-a-Gun, One with Waxco and one with ciplak one (all mix in), and then you test for yourself..... smile_big.gif
