    How does @driverdog get all his tyre feeder? Maybe I am missing something here but he seems to have the hook up. Maybe things have changed and I am out of the loop, this is very likely. It would be a shame to lose this stuff from our detailing arsenals. I use the Opt. TPC for tires but waxaddict feeder still gets used plenty in my garage. I think carpro perl is close but not quite as good as the tyre feeder.

    They won't even ship the smaller bottles. I was hoping to snag a few to get me through until they can figure something out.

    I'll have to revisit CarPro Perl. I have a few bottles left anyway. Maybe I'll try it straight up with no dilution.

    This stuff has been going strong on my tires for several months now and no signs of it wanting to come off other than scuffs from curbs and whatnot. That is the one downside to the TPC, it is nearly impossible to clean. I have a few scuffs here and there that I have just left and not applied anything to. I have a plan this weekend to try to use some drill brushes, tire cleaner, and whatever else i need to do to attempt to remove what is left of the coating. I will run the tires with either no shine or maybe some carpro perl for a few weeks then give them a good cleaning and recoat with TPC before winter. As long as you get your tires good and clean this stuff really is amazing for both it various levels of gloss and the ridiculous longevity.

    How long does the tuf shine last for Steve? @SouthBoundSteve . And does the tuf shine tire cleaner do anything to remove the coating? Nothing seems to wash off the optimum sealant, this is both a good thing and bad.

    I tried a few other tire dressings and I've decided to stick with Tyre Feeder. I love the look!

    @Jim LE 1301 you re-gifting mf.

    I have a couple of bottles myself. I do really like the product, but it is pretty unforgiving. I’ll probably reserve it for vehicles I know won’t be maintained when I’m done.

    Since the wife's van doesn't have aggressive tread, it'd be nice to do something to them that I wouldn't have to touch often. Especially since hers is white and I don't have/want to spend too much time cleaning her van every week. My truck takes enough of my time! lol. Let me knwo @Jim LE 1301 if you want to ship it my way ;-)
