Adam's SVRT is by far the best I've ever used. No mess and no worries about slinging it.

Love SVRT as well. Hate glossy tires, this makes them just right.

I love dodo tyromania and optimum optibond. Great products. Don't wash off in the rain and spreads sooooo far.

Megs Hyper dressing. You can dilute it to your desired shine, Can not beat it for price point either. Water based also,not silicone.

Try Zaino Z-16 Perfect Tire Gloss. It'll do the trick.

Adams has way more sheen than Dodo and Opti-bond. Just saying. If you truly want a no shine dressing, SVRT is not the way to go. Not bashing SVRT at all. Just saying that it isn't truly a matte sheen.

I'll second you on this. The tires look darker but not shiny. I love the look

I use Black Magic Titanium Matte Tire Finish. Nice no sling finish - not too shiny but not dull like I didn't put anything on.

http://www.blackmagicshine.com/titan...ire-finish.php

Can be a bit hard to find at most auto parts stores but I usually have luck at Pep Boys.

He said low gloss, which implies SOME gloss.

They do have some gloss, just a lower amount than SVRT.
