I detailed my dads car last night and decided to use the endurance tire gel for the first time. I got the kit that has the appliactor with it. I applied about two coats on each tire and they look great at the time. The next day there was no shine. They looked very dull. Did I not put enough on? It says on the box it last for weeks. I did a search on the forum and everyone praised it. It sure did smell good though. Just about all the other megs products I used on the car had great results. Any information would be appreciated about the gel. Thanks

Originally posted by moparboy View PostI rinsed them off hard with the hose before doing each tire. I guess it's possible they were not clean enough to apply the gel. Since I have nearly a full bottle left i'll double the coats next time and get the tires even cleaner before hand. It says on the box to add more for a more glossy shine.
If you get the tires good & clean before applying the Endurance I think you will not only be surprised by how much crud is removed from the tires but also by how nice the end result is.

I thoroughly clean my tires and then apply the Endurance (usually just one coat) and it lasts about two weeks or so.

Ive used Westley's Bleche-Wite since I was a kid, Ive yet to find anything better than it is. Spray that on a wet tire then scrub it with a brush. Make sure you do not inhale it or get it on the paint or rims. If you do rinse it all as soon as possible.Current Jeep: 2004 Jeep Liberty with stuff

Re: endurance tire gel
I use the Meguiar's High Endurance Gloss Tire Gel and I really like it alot. Works great and it shines up the car tire pretty well. I usually use a dedicated tire brush first to wash the tires. Then I would dress the tire with the product afterwards and the tires shine.
Try using a tire brush and see if that helps.

Re: endurance tire gel
I agree with the other posters. I have had good results using Endurance. The key, in my opinion is starting with a good clean tire, then follow the instructions. I have never used the one that comes with the applicator, but doubt there is any difference.
