I’ve had a lot of luck with 303 Protectant for vinyl, rubber, plastic, tires and finished leather, I have never tried to not let it dry overnight so I don’t know about sling while wet. Very nice clean non greasy look

Yup that's what I always used on my 37's. Thought I would try Adam's but after one application I might just go back to the 303, I buy it by the gallon.

I’ve been using Meguiars Hot Shine and been satisfied with it so far. I’ve had issues with others that “fling” on the side of the truck but not with this. Here is a pic I just took. It was applied Saturday morning and been through 200 miles so far and it rained yesterday.

I should have got before shots. I had P&S beadmaker on my rubber mats and it worked ok. Today I’m testing them with 303
First impression is WOW!!!

*UPDATE*

Now it’s been 4 days and 350 miles. Rained again last night here in NJ on my way home. This is how the Meguiars is holding up.

I know this is a spray thread but I now use a gel and the bottle has lasted me over 2 years on 2 vehicles washing at least every other week with large sponge application(wear glove on sponge hand). The large cans would be gone in 2 months and always had to wipe the wheels down after from over-spray.

The only downside is the gel is a little more difficult to remove completely, but you can't have your cake and eat it sometimes.

Brown is antioxidant that is in the tire compound. Take a tire cleaner to it.

Meguiar's Hot Rims Tire & Wheel Cleaner (I might have mixed the order of words) will lift antioxidant, especially if you brush it a little. Mother's Foaming Tire & Wheel Cleaner is my preferred product. The Meguiar's starts with a wet surface, the Mother's is applied to a dry surface. Mother's needs no drying of the wheels afterward. Both products are OK on OEM wheels. You might want to ask/test on anything else.

Don't judge.... Never greasy, does not sling onto paint, over spray on the wheels means shiny wheels. :)

The over spray is my pet peeve. I hate spending the better part of a day detailing and then doing my tires last only to have to back over all the wheels again.

I just gob a metric ton of gel onto an applicator and go at it. Probably not the most cost effective method, but it works!

But pledge did not last long for me

I tried the Target brand of furniture polish and didn't have the same effect as Pledge. Pledge lasts as long as it does not rain here (which admittedly is not very long), but the benefits of no greasy mess on the truck or on my hands is well worth it for me. I also use it in my wheel wells when I want the truck looking lemony fresh.

I always wanted to try Superior Products "Cover All"

I'm surprised no one has recommended armour all. I've used their spray foam that looked great for about a week. But the true magic seems to be in the Armour all extreme tire shine gel, I know this isn't spray but it's the longest lasting one they offer, 3 weeks so far and no browning and they look great.
