Bit of a random thread but what tyre wall paint do the hand car wash guys use with a brush? Anyone know as it always looks good and lasts for ages? Tried a number of sprays and they don't last long and goes all over the wheels.

Re: Tyre wall paint/shine
I use 
too but it is very messy, especially if you use one of those stupid little applicator pads. :'( Way i now apply it it pour some into an old jug and apply with a 2" paint brush. can cover all the desired areas without having to move the car to get to the bottom of the tyre. easy and clean job now! and it does last for ages, even after some rain.

I use Chemical Guys Trim Gel and it is superb. Not messy and no splatters if you choose to drive the car straight away.
