Sounds interesting. It's too bad you don't have photos to show the look of it.

Mini Review

Straight forward, easy to follow directions.
I shook the can well. (I do this will all chemicals).
I did a quick spray 4"-6" away from tire in short sprays.
I shook then can when done. I used less than 1/4 of the can.

Initial thoughts.
It has a very pleasing smell. It smelled like grape Kool-Aid!
The first thing I noticed is that it really blacken the tires a lot.
The second was the shine! Although bright, it was not in your face.
It is bright, and reflects light, without looking like a "glazed doughnut".
Maybe that's because I did a light spray but IMHO it's still a lot of shine.

I personally do NOT like that greasy, plastic, "glazed doughnut" look.
This is not a flat matte look, it has shine, but it is a dark pleasing look.

I can't say if it has a sling. I sprayed the tires and put the vehicle away.
IMHO this is not an everyday tire dressing...IT IS for the Saturday night out.
When you look at the tires they "catch your eye" without you really knowing why.
If you really want that "glazed doughnut" ultra shine, a couple of coats could be blinding.

It is bright. I hit the tires once. NOTE: Wipe overspray off wheels, paint & plastic right away.

Final Thoughts:
For that "Car Show" sparkle without the "glazed doughnut" look, this is a quick and easy product.
Reflect really makes the tires look very black. For a bright but not "soaking wet look" use one light coat.

This is one of those FUN products. When used correctly I give it a thumbs up!

ive bought another meguiar tire spray before. i felt it was too much of a pain to cover up overspray. i used like a third of the can for 4 tires. well anyways, i'm going to use the meguiars endurance tire gel this next time, and ill see how that goes. otherwise i woul dhave tried the reflect tire shine.

If used on concrete, could I make like runway lights on my driveway?

I'm guessing it leaves an interesting residue?

Look forward to trying it on the wife's car first.

This should be a pretty popular product. One of the cars I maintain - he can get enough tire shine...

Probably not something I would really use day to day, but might be fun for a photoshoot with a car.

Yes, interesting.

Any photos of the reflections and 'unique visual effect' mentioned?
