If you've tried any of these $1 tire shine ideas than drop a comment below and tell me if it worked and what you liked or didn't like about it. I'd really be interested to know your thoughts!
It it possible to get a cheap great tire shine, that's equal to Meguiar's Endurance Tire Gel, for only $1? In this video I try three home concoctions that includes a can of coca cola, baby oil, regular table sugar and test them against Dollar Store bought furniture polish to see which is the best tire shine for a buck. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
If you aren't into DIY, I recommend finding a dollar store and taking a peek at the automotive section: it usually contains either a liquid or foaming tire shine product-for $1!
1cup warm water/ 2 cups coconut oil/ half teaspoon dishsoap and lemon juice. Spray bottle/ shake well. Spray to dry areas and let sit until absorbed into rubber, plastic trim, leather interior and dash. Apply a second coat if desired for extra shine.
If I use 2 cups of my wife's organic coconut oil, I'll be paying more for the DIY stuff than the high-end professional tire shine. And she'll murder me!

Keep doing what u r doing, its always good to see/hear abt different tactics u can use to make things better on ur vehicles.....
Coke has many uses, like removing rust from steel and clearing clogged drains which I have done. Please don't drink it. Lol
coke is trash
@@goaheadtagmeIknowyoumadbitch yeah!
@Isaac Dallas what'd you find out?
Dr pepper sucks. Its all about sprite
Not bad except for the fact my wife was sucking on my tires the next morning. Embarrassing
I tried the 50-50 sugar water. I used 12 oz sugar, 12 oz water, and 2 oz ant killer. It doesn't work well (but the ants are smart enough to stay away). At first the sugar makes the tires look dark and wet, but then it later crystallizes and looks like a sugar glaze ('cuz it is). Unless you want tires that look like a honey-glazed chocolate doughnut, don't try this! Also, it's a mess working with sugar water. It's sticky and gets on the wheels. It makes a smeary mess. The spray gets on your hands, arms, and I think some even got in my eyes (which started to hurt because of the ant killer). I have hairy arms so the sticky spray was uncomfortable. At first I tried a spray bottles but both quickly got clogged. Then I used a bucket and an old shoe brush, like they use at Cobblestone Car Wash. So after I had to wash the bucket, the brush, etc. And had to take a shower. Later I will also have to re-wash my tires+wheels and re-apply real tire shine.
Anyway, I recommend just paying for the professional spray tire shine. I buy the expensive stuff for $10 and it only does around 12 tires, but it's not worth the hassle of using sugar.
😆
I know its been a year since u posted this video but anything that has been advertised is a definitely a eye opener for me....thx for all ur video im still looking at all ur videos....
Coke is old school. I used it on my 68SS Chevelle back in the day. Brought back memories. Thanks
Doesn't the phosphoric acid in the Coke eat away your tires ? I've seen Coke dissolve a ten-penny nail in three days !!!
That old commercial just inspired me to make a commercial =)
Coke and Sunlight soap or Dawn, works well and dry quick.
Quick tip. Add sweet n low to your sugar water there is something about the SnL ants cannot stand it..thanks for sharing
I hate this guy and I like this guy at the same time. 😂 I’m subscribing
Very cool! Very well made also!
That's a damn fine commercial, thank you good sir!
Love your videos man
Did a great job MR
That car will have Type II diabetes !!!
Tire 2 diabetes!

I have to recommend you for comment of the year. Bravo 👏
That's great , i got alot of bees and ants now
Subscribed - Short and sweet (like your tyre shine..)
I use to use Johnson spray floor wax for my big black wall raised white letters after i cleaned and used a white marker on the raised lettering on my Chevelle SS back in 1971. You had to clean them well and then put on the floor wax for a high gloss like patent leather shoes.
Patton leather, got its name from the boots that General Patton wore
@@gregmurphy4231 UM...its PATENT leather😂
Haha this was a great video! great work!
Hey, thanks man. I was really curious if home concoctions could work. Turned out well I think!
Turned out amazing! deffs gonna give it a go in the future now! haha
So much win with this video. I'm curious how well these hold up after a week. I also think you need to contact coke for an endorsement because I am craving a coke right now.
WINNING! Ha, John, you're great! This takes having A Coke and a Smile to an all new level!
@@hullinger How did the shine last after a wee spin?
It’ll be gone after one rain
a talented man
Bees were a big problem when I did it with the coke
Cheap skate
Pablo Diaz Yet you’re watching the same video.. right...
Arjan Singh lmfaoooooo
Did baby oil, waited 5 minutes until it dried, then did a 2nd coat and 3rd... and it shines beautiful
I may try it..Did you use a spray bottle?
Ima try that
You can also get clear coat spray paint
I'll take the Coke and chips please, (great vid)..
Won't the Coke/Sugar Water come off in the 1st rain or going through the 1st puddle?
Well done, sugar water all the way!
The Coke and the sugar water are almost the same thing...ergo the same results. Had a friend in the trucking business, he used brake lfuid every once in a while. Said it actually worked well to keep tires from cracking by melding the rubber together. I wouldn't use too much of it though. The sugar water and Coke ( actually any soda with a lot of sugar in it would probably work )
I’ll give it a try later, thanks!
Hey McGyver, you had me at , "can of coke is for me " .... lol
Thanks man for checking out this stupid little tire shine vid. Appreciate that!
I'm about to try the sugar water part rite now!! Its about 47° in detroit today and I'm cleaning my car up .. I'll come back with the results in a day or so with the results ..
So..
You see, ants has eaten all the tires, there was a spill on his computer and now it's gone too!
Great video 👍
Thanks 👍
Sugar water works even better when it’s been boiled
cool idea/clip. did coke and sweet water give a sticky result? thank u!!!!
Hey man, thanks for checking out my tire shine video and for your comment. Yeah, using that sugar water gave the best results but only lasted until the next time it rained. It stained the driveway too but that washed away easily as well. Sticky? Well, I really didn't feel it after it dried so I can't say. There was however a bunch of bees flying around the car for some reason. Don't really know what that was about! -Chris
Clycerine is the best ....long lasting and does not harm the tyres
Well I did this and it works.. BTW no ants and sticky etc.. 👍👍
Which one did you try? Tha water sugar or coke?
🤣🤣🤣😲 Way Kewl bro!!!
Honest, And I love the humor.
Very very well done my friend.
Jarid
brake fluid, and grenadine works too
Eric Jones but that is much more expensive than a tire shine product😂
Now I know why Santa's truck looks so shiny.
Sweet ride
bro exelent bro this trick is working sug water thank you ver much
you gonna have ants coming all over your tyres.......lol
Hahaha. Yea, ants and every cat in the neighborhood too! -Chris

Thanks for the video..i live in Nigeria.... Coke Cola and sugar is very cheap yet abundant ... i will b doing this ..Thanks man
Whats life like in Nigeria? Is it dangerous?
@@paulkazjack like everywhere in the world , they are dangerous places..lagos is rather peaceful and welcoming ...like visiting a new place or country ..you have to have your guide so high and just never trust anyone but i implode you to visit, an amazing positive experience you will never forget
Nice Video I like it, I'm from Indonesia
Don't forget about the Ants You are going to have in your house !!!
Scrubbing bubbles bathroom cleaner! I was looking for ways to get the crud off my tires on my golf cart, sprayed it on and as soon as it hit the brown stuff started coming off. I wiped the dirt off sprayed it again to get more dirt off, and then sprayed it once more and let it sit... was going to wipe it off but was surprised when I seen the shine...
Nice man and thanks for sharing your tip on using that bathroom cleaner on the tires. I'll give it a try! -Chris
i know someone who waxed a whole fire engine with pledge , looked good but after 2 days the filth that attached itself to it was amazing
That would be funny and awful all at the same time.
@@hullinger lol it was but it did look good for a couple of hours
LOL Chris, I am not putting Coke on my tires. 1980 Lincoln limo???
Hey Pat. A limo for sure but an '85 Chrysler K-car limo that's been 'tastefully' customized with the most outrageous add-ons ever.
isn't that soda sticky and its going to attract road dirt and dust like a magnet
You cant write that. That is something user has to bear.
Great way to attract ants. Sugar water and coke
What was the sugar water mix I never heard of that an it looks better then chemical guys vrp
Semen works surprisingly well
😆
my uncle used coke in the 60's and 70's
Did he get hooked on the booger sugar??
lots of people still do
Will the coke eat away at the rubber though?
Chemical guys tire and trim gel beats them allll ha ha ha ha ha just kidding tfs buddy but really chemical guys tire and trim shines very good 👍
Thanks for the tip on using the Chemical Guys tire shine. I've seen their videos on YT and wanted to try there washes and other products. This might just be a good time to give them a try. Thanks again. -Chris
I'm a beekeeper and my bees would all over that sugar water. Lol. Good video tho.
Hm..so,Sugar Water...gonna give that a shot 😁👍
I use butter and let me to tell you its freaking shine.
So u use water sugar and cola and all clean and shining tire
spray paint works well and lasts about 30 days on the tires
You spray paint your tires???
Yeah good can of clear coat works fine.
@@dewaynewhite2928 really?? Would it not crack and look ugly over time?
@@njw1383 I remember my dad back in the 60's use to mix black paint and mineral spirits to make a watery black tire stain and it worked well and looked good, he would clean the tires and use a paint brush to put paint stain on tires.
Thanks 🎉
that ad sent me back to early 00's
A 5 dollars tire shine - almost any cheap Walmart kind -- can hold 1 year and more... if you don't use it every day . who needs to use it more than once in 3-4 weeks anyways??. Most tire shines last FOREVER with smart and economic use. McGuires "Endurance" for example...only a few drops of it are required for a single tire. No more than a few drops on a very clean tire.. Generally speaking, plastic, trims and rubber materials work on the same basis. You can use a cheapie like " STP's Son of a Gun" on ALL rubber and plastic and vynil parts of your vehicle. Tires included. It's quite stupid to spray sugar water on your tires when even REGULAR BLACK SHOE SHINE will work MUCH better. Rubbing your tires with tire shine is not needed on a daily or weekly basis. Once a month will do just fine. the tires keep staying black if you do that regularly. The big bottle of endurance tire gel can last you 3 to 4 years if you'll use it on 1 vehicle once in 3 or 4 weeks. Easily..
just use shoe polish buff with a brush just like doing your shoes works a treat
shaun croft nice! how long does that last ?
@@GuadalupeGonzalez-gr8qg until it rains!
If you lived in Australia, you'd have spent around $25 for the r'recipe you offer' much cheaper to by a can of Tyre Shine at $2.50.
baby oil is good to prevent drying up of tire
Coke will have dust stuck to it in seconds
Brake fluid works
I sprayed sugar water on my tires.....now i have sugar ants all over the place.
Try a Baby oil and sugar mix
At 1:50 I totally expected you to crack open the Coke, then "accidentally" reach over and drink down some Turtle Wax!
Isn't Coke basically "sugar water"?
Haha, now that would have been 'classic'! And yeah, Coke is is sugar and water mixed with some coloring agents! Perfect for tires!
You'll have no shortage of ants when you use that sugar water.
All types of creatures gonna be attracted
Pro tip:-
Don't try to be an engineer if you aren't one
Lol grandma chair
What about all the bees and hummingbirds that will swarm your tires?
Cola and sugar water - nice way to get your wheels covered with bugs... be sure to get them on your brake discs just to get that caramel shine :D no seriously don't use sugar products on your car..
Wow...illusions !!
it works
hahha and after a week those 2 nice lookings partrs were sandy all over. Super sticky so all dirts sticks to it.
hey ants gonna eat them tires all the way down lmao like Billy boy cartoon
How much sugar to water?
Did mine with water sugar, has bees on the tires.
... PASSING THRU ...
what can i use on the plastic parts to make it look nice and shiny. i clean my engine but now the plastic part looks dry so what can i use to make it shine and look good. i use the meguiars trim restore in the spray can and i didn't like it so what am i doing wrong and what should i use
It's expensive ($15 a spray bottle) but 303 aerospace protectant is the best for that
Lol was wondering wat the chips were for 😂
I buy a gallon size tire dressing at the car detailers supply $25 lasts me over two years do my car weekly wife and daughter car biweekly just buy in bulk saves money
One twooo thwee fo get from da Dolla stoe

There’s a reason they make tyre shine to protect and to stop tyres cracking , all these hacks will ruin the tyre over time
Coke and Sugar water is the same and will completely wash off during the first rain.
Spray Painting with a pumped up truck tire
Sugar plus coke! The better one
Wouldn't sugar water and coke attract ants and other bugs all over the tires because of the sugar content ?
Nah.
Goat milk and maple syrup work fine..
So, sugar shines?
I pissed on my near side front tyre, years ago, at night time on a busy road.
(being discreet,) I drove away very satisfied.
Unfortunately,the piss stain lasted weeks as I never washed the car.
Honestly id rather stick to what is made for car tyres, these life hacks may look better but in the long run may damage the tyre stability by causing cracks or drying out the rubber!
Power steering fluid
Awesome! lol
Thanks man, appreciate it.
Please give formula waxpol company car bike liquid polish
