Anyone ever hear of using Brake Fluid on sidewalls?
I read this somewhere as something that dealers did to give a deep, rich wet shine. I did it to my old car before I sold it and it looked very good, but IMO - I wouldn't do it to 'my baby' unless I head some good data on it.
I use Eagle One Wet Tire Shine as well. Have to be careful to rub it in well, or you can get some spatter (with any product)
I have not tried yet, but hear good things about:
Stoners - More Shine Less Time
Meguiers - Tire Gel

Used both Meguiars and Eagle One (more) ...
Eagle One is basically glorified baby oil in a squirtbottle. Works good, but on really dry sidewalls it'll take a few applications to make them -glossy- . It's pretty non-messy as well, but it could last a while longer (personal feelings).
The Meguiars gel also works well, but is -messy- to work with. It lasts a very, -very- long time, though, and isn't prone to splatter since it really doesn't sit on the sidewall very long.
HTH...
