So I recently got VRT and was wondering if I can still apply it to my tires even though it's been about a week since I've washed my car. Should VRT only be applied to a clean spotless surface, as in directly after a car wash? In my last post that "insane" moderator Dan told me he applies VRT twice a week! But he can't possibly wash his car twice a week could he? Wouldn't be surprised! All in all i'm just asking if you guys apply VRT/Tire Shine even when your tire isn't properly clean, thanks!

Thanks everyone for the replies, awesome friendly responsive community we got here! I opted for the VRT and super excited to use it, thanks everyone again!

I've looked into both considerably but I really still am not 100% sure which one I'm interested in getting. My goal is to have a dark, black, deep matte finish on my tire as though it was brand new, not shiny! The VRT seems to deliver the matte black look I'm chasing but many have said it doesn't last as long as the Tire Shine. The only thing about the tire shine however is that even when applied to create a "matte" finish it still comes out pretty shiny based on pictures and videos I've seen; I personally am against shine on my tires, I think it makes it looks unnatural. Where I am currently, it's been raining a fair amount, 3-4 days a week and getting to temperatures as low as 25-30 degrees Fahrenheit at nights. In these conditions will the VRT wear off too easily? I have no problem applying the VRT monthly but weekly would be kind of insane. Would appreciate any knowledge and advice, thank you! Also I'm new so, nice to meet you everyone!
