    I want to get a big jug of Waxaddict Tyre Dressing for me and one for my dad. I'm having a hard time finding it online.
    Anyone know where I can get them?

    From all I hear the tyre feeder is far superior. I have used the tyre feeder and like it alot for all kinda of uses, I have not used the dressing.

    @jason.bird
    I recieves a email from Richard saying that they will cover up to 25 bucks (pounds?) And its gonna cost 85. I though it was a surprising that they would cover shipping when I originally checked out. No worries, gotta pay to play.

    Now I'm thinking though, should I add anything else to the order? Anything stand out that I should add? I've only used the Tyre dressing, and now I'll have a bunch of feeder.

    I haven't used anything but tyre feeder. I bought a few of the wax but haven't used them. I know another member raved about the fo show spray so I bought some recently but again haven't used it since it's winter time here.

    I have used a few of their products and other than the tire feeder I haven't been impressed. Things like car shampoo, wheel shampoo, spray washes. That said, I have not used any of their waxes yet and have not tried their elements series of products, but I have some waiting for warm weather.

    I’ve tried a lot of their stuff. The only things that I’ve gotten from them that really stand out are the Feeder and the Vortex wax. The Feeder you know about, the wax is stupid expensive. It’s really great, but I honestly think I like Shine Supply’s offerings better. Their interior cleaner is really good, but not light years ahead of anything else.

    Got my delivery and took the new feeder for a test drive.
    I'm amazed with how glossy it is.

    Has anyone tried using it with a sprayer?IMG_20200124_151143.jpg IMG_20200124_151057.jpg

    I probably won't use it on the interior again....too glossy.

    You aren’t missing anything. Their sprayers are horrible. I throw them straight in the trash.

    Good point. I need to find a good sprayer that does a decent mist, but not such a wide area.
    Recommendation?

    These are probably my favorite kind. I used to get them from CarPro but the last time I ordered some they’d switched to the adjustable nozzle. The spray on this type are pretty much perfect in my opinion.

    I also like these from Shine Supply, but they have the adjustable sprayer so I only use them for tire and wheel cleaner, Hydro2, or other things where I’m not so concerned with overspray.

    For those of you who like Tyre Feeder, you may want to look at Gyeon Tire Express. It is really similar to Waxaddict in appearance and consistency. It’s become my favorite tire dressing. I haven’t tried it on plastics or interiors though, so it may not be as versatile. Certainly easier and cheaper to get though.

    Thanks! I hate using foam tire applicators on tires, so I'll grab some of those Adams ones.

    These are foam, but a little different. I like them a lot.

    Do they work well with getting into the books of the sidewall?
    The cheap POS ones I use from pep boys fall apart instantly.

    Yes. They work better than other things I’ve tried. They do fall apart eventually, but not sooner than they should. I get plenty of uses out of one.

    I'll have to give that stuff a try once my 5L Tyre Feeder is used up. Might be a minute.
