Default best tire gloss/polish?

Whats the best tire polish/gloss in your opinion? The stuff I have bought in the store looks great when applied, but it's been my experience that it don't last more than a day or so, no matter what the container says.

I use the Meguirers Endurance Gel. It seems to last at least two weeks or so and doesn't sling off very much.

I use Zaino, not too glossy. I have the Meguiars Gel gloss and it slings crap all over the car, Zaino does not.

But Zaino is not as shiny as Meguiars. It depends on what you want and what your willing to sacrifice.

For a matte finish, I use original Armor All.
For a semi gloss finish, I use Zaino.
For a full gloss Finish, I use Eiman Fabrik Black Opal or Black Sapphire.

My personal favorite is Mother's Duration Tire Shine. I like it mostly for the easy to use factor....just squeeze onto the applicator and rub it in. It's also pretty easy to control the shine level...one coat = semi-gloss, 2-3 coats = mad glossy. I usually get about 2 weeks out of one application.

Add a new favorite to my list. My order of Poorboy's World Bold N Bright tire dressing came today and it works unbelievably! Some of the best stuff Ive ever tried, and it wasn't very expensive at all, especially considering that it took almost zero product to do all four tires. I highly reccomend this product to everyone!
