NEVER BUY TIRE SHINE AGAIN! Cheap DIY Homemade $1 Tire Shine for $1

[@thatrandomdude4505]

If you aren't into DIY, I recommend finding a dollar store and taking a peek at the automotive section: it usually contains either a liquid or foaming tire shine product-for $1!

[@guesswho4671]

1cup warm water/ 2 cups coconut oil/ half teaspoon dishsoap and lemon juice. Spray bottle/ shake well. Spray to dry areas and let sit until absorbed into rubber, plastic trim, leather interior and dash. Apply a second coat if desired for extra shine.

I tried the 50-50 sugar water. I used 12 oz sugar, 12 oz water, and 2 oz ant killer. It doesn't work well (but the ants are smart enough to stay away). At first the sugar makes the tires look dark and wet, but then it later crystallizes and looks like a sugar glaze ('cuz it is). Unless you want tires that look like a honey-glazed chocolate doughnut, don't try this! Also, it's a mess working with sugar water. It's sticky and gets on the wheels. It makes a smeary mess. The spray gets on your hands, arms, and I think some even got in my eyes (which started to hurt because of the ant killer). I have hairy arms so the sticky spray was uncomfortable. At first I tried a spray bottles but both quickly got clogged. Then I used a bucket and an old shoe brush, like they use at Cobblestone Car Wash. So after I had to wash the bucket, the brush, etc. And had to take a shower. Later I will also have to re-wash my tires+wheels and re-apply real tire shine. Anyway, I recommend just paying for the professional spray tire shine. I buy the expensive stuff for $10 and it only does around 12 tires, but it's not worth the hassle of using sugar.

A 5 dollars tire shine - almost any cheap Walmart kind -- can hold 1 year and more... if you don't use it every day . who needs to use it more than once in 3-4 weeks anyways??. Most tire shines last FOREVER with smart and economic use. McGuires "Endurance" for example...only a few drops of it are required for a single tire. No more than a few drops on a very clean tire.. Generally speaking, plastic, trims and rubber materials work on the same basis. You can use a cheapie like " STP's Son of a Gun" on ALL rubber and plastic and vynil parts of your vehicle. Tires included. It's quite stupid to spray sugar water on your tires when even REGULAR BLACK SHOE SHINE will work MUCH better. Rubbing your tires with tire shine is not needed on a daily or weekly basis. Once a month will do just fine. the tires keep staying black if you do that regularly. The big bottle of endurance tire gel can last you 3 to 4 years if you'll use it on 1 vehicle once in 3 or 4 weeks. Easily..

DO NOT!!! buy wet tire shine spray!!!. The oil spray gets on the brake rotors and brake pads. You are NOT!!! supposed to put oils on your brake rotors. It will ruin your rotors and brake pads. You will have to get 4 new brake rotors and new brake pads a few weeks after you spay oils on them and driving. Get ready to spend hundreds of dollars for new rotors and pads if you do it. Learn from my experience of failure. If you want the wet tire look.. get the wet tire gel with a sponge and apply the gel with a sponge and only put the tire wet gel on the TIRES!!! Not the wheels or brake rotors. You're welcome
