I also use Meguiar's Endurance but it is not a high gloss finish, which is what I perfer. From all the tire dressings I have used over the years, this one seems to last longest as advertised. I also use Meguiar's vinyl protectent and the leather cleaner/protectent products. And they seem to work pretty well.

Just be careful with those cheap sprey on dressings. I had experience where all 4 tires had plenty of threads left but had to be replaced cause creaks forming on the tire sidewalls. I think the cheap tire dressing I was using at the time had something to do with it. It was a petroleum base or some other chemical in them that cause more harm than good.

Someone with more knowlege on this subject may enlighten us all on what product to use or to avoid.

boosta, yep that's what I'm looking for also, a high gloss finish. Can anyone recommend a tire dressing that provides a high gloss finish?

The Meguiar's Endurance comes in two different types. The one Jody posted does produce a high gloss finish.

Anyone know who carries Mequiar's Endurance High Gloss? I tried AutoZone and Advance Auto, neither had it. We don't have a PepBoys or anything like that around here.
