Tire shine

I bought this tire shine called Black Max Tire wet, and it works great, except I get runs on the tires. It says to spray it on, let it set, and your done.. but when i spray it on it runs , and i have to wipe it.. and if i lightly mist it so it dosnt run, it dosnt shine good. Any tips?

try not to spray so close? a few differnt shines ive used in the past do the same thing, i just let it sit for a few, take a pad and run it around. But I bought this shine called No-Touch, its a spray that you literally dont need to touch, u can keep reapplying for a deeper shine and it even stays on after a rain. Probably the best tire shine product ive owned.

Consider following the directions.
I use one that says the similar, and it goes on quite runny, but after a period of time it dries. I can apply more coats if needed. Time involved varies depending on weather temp and humidity.

i use plack majic tire shine or meguiers insane shine. some times it can run but i just let the vehicle set for an hour or longer and it looks fine. plus letting it set lets the tire shine soak in and run off so it does not sling tire shine on you freshly washed car or truck.
