    I`ll start...



    Bridgestone Potenza RE950 (from the Maxima)

    NXT Tech Protectant I got about a week. Wolfgang Gel I would get about 10 days and still looking good. Of course I`d reapply every week at the most just because it looked a little better with fresh dressing.



    Supergard LE300 (these are crap...from the Protege)

    Wolfgang Gel gets me about 4-5 days without washing. I hate these tires. I haven`t tried any other products on them yet.



    Michelin Energy MXV4 (My neighbor`s tires)

    Wolfgang Gel gets over 2 weeks and still looking good. These tires hold dressing very well, even through multiple washes.



    Goodyear Regatta2 (my Mom`s tires)

    Wolfgang Gel holds for about a week without washing.
    Paul...

    `13 Mazda3i P21S/WG sealant/Paste Glaz/QD+
    `99 Mazda Protege LX - highlight silver - RIP
    `95 Nissan Maxima SE - white - slathered with Pinnacle Paste Glaz - RIP

    BFGoodrich KDW2 on a 2004 PT Cruiser Turbo. 303 Protectant holds up very, very well between washes, which is usually every two weeks. The car is garaged and, well, it doesn`t rain here (except for this past winter - record rainfall) for months at a time. I like the look of 303 on tires; very "clean" without being super shiny, doesn`t sling, and it lasts.



    Falken Ziex 512 on a 1999 Mazda Miata. Same as above, but this car gets washed every couple of months as it`s just a weekend toy. The current application of 303 has been on for at least a month and is just now looking like it could use a boost.



    Kelly Chargers on a 1992 Camaro RS. Uh, well, this thing sits outside (although it is coverd) and is only used in bad weather and Wednesdays when the city street sweeper comes by and I have to move it or get a ticket. Plus, my sprinklers would hit the tires on the passenger side every other day, so what`s the point??? It`s getting new paint in the next few weeks, so then it will be worthy of serious upkeep.

    Pirelli P7, Meguiars Endurance; about 3 weeks, if the weather is good, and I don`t wash the tires with something stronger than NXT Car Wash.

    Goodyear Eagle LS on the PT- ~2 weeks with PB BnB(I like this stuff), ~1 week with AA Original, and ~1 week with EO WET Gel.



    Goodyear Integrity on the Pilot- I don`t like these tires much. Dressings only last about a week at most with any product(although this vehicle is outside 24/7).
    Life is just too short to drive a substandard vehicle...

    Meg`s Insane Shine on Goodyear RSA`s. This stuff is very wet looking for the first couple of days then it tones down to a great look that lasts and doesn`t sling. This photo is 5 weeks after application. Four washes and two days of heavy rain.
