Turtle wax Extreme tyre gel to give it its full name. Comes in a dayglo green plastic bottle available from Halfords £4.99.

This stuff is superb. Believe me, I have tried them all over the past 15 years including the stuff the trade uses on new cars and this one tops them all. Gives the tyre walls a nice gloss that doesn't spin off up the sides of the car and is easy to apply with a sponge.

Quite agree m8. I used it and was impressed. Then took a dry towel to the rubber & gave them a really good clean and applied it again. Came out fantastic so make sure your tyres are clean first.

Yep pukka stuff unlike the AutoGlym junk in the spray bottle with the black label - looks wet and shiny til it dries then just looks clean - Turtle Wax owns it.
