Armor-all stuff was the stuff to use once upon a time..... but now there's so much better out there that won't give you that browned up look to your tires.... from my experience.. I've noted that armor all stuff browns tires... and also fades interiors... especially if you got a black interior. IMO armor all is the worst stuff ever... that is why I didn't even rate it!

Has that happen to you as well?

That happens with any tire shine.... just keep a clean microfiber cloth in your car at all times... it usually only happens after the first time driving after applying tire shine... so when you drive it after applying it.... just give it a good wipe down with a microfiber...

Agreed, where do you find 303? Ever since the S2000 guys started using it for their tops I can't find it at any CT or partsource...

I'v checked Walmart too..

I can order it on Ebay, but it'll end up costing 2-3 times what it sells in the store for.

I use ArmourAll Extreme Tire shine. The gel you rub on.

Works awesome, last for weeeeeeeeeeeeks. Even after a few car washes. Still stays minty.
