Tuf Shine Tire Appearance Kit

Tuf Shine manufacturing rep's have notified me of a price increase in the upcoming weeks. Price will increase from $24.99 to $29.99 for the Tire Cleaner, Tire Sealant kit (includes applicator and now includes a scrub brush).

Ive have been using this product for over a year now and really, really like its absolute no sling qualities, great cleaning ability, and its durability. Ever brush up against your tires with a pair of levis on after using a traditional tire dressing? Uh huh... you know what Im talking about dont you....
TufShine sealant actually dries clear, doesnt attract dust, and resist several washes before having to reapply. Matter of fact, you can usually just wipe the tires "clean"......

This product sounded interesting enough for me to check it out.

How glossy do the tires look after the application. I'm not a fan of very glossy tire dressings. I've been using Stoner's More Shine on my tires and I like the results very much. Lately though I cannot find it in the spray bottle anywhere. I can only find the aerosol which I hate using. I like to apply it with a sponge.

Well in my experience with it, it's not too glossy...which I like. BUT, if you want it to be a bit more glossy you can add an additional coat until you find something you like.

Dang it price hike. I really like this product, I've put on 3 coats and it has last over 2 months in the summer months. Going to have to put in an order with you Pat. So can we still get an AZ discount?

D, that is a discounted price. This last shipment received at time of thread writing, was at the elevated distributor price already. I didnt want to make a big speech about raising prices "already" as I thought I had at least a couple weeks. But..............when this order is depleted, my next shipment will be at $29.99. I think TufShine finally realized this stuff is worth something. For those of you who have been using it over 6-8 months, you probably remember its introductory price of $19.99? Yeah, up 33% in a year! If they take it over the $30.00 mark, Im done.......I wont carry it anymore.

Im chuckling D.....
Ya have to hit that $50.01 mark for the 10% discount to kick in amigo......
I kind of did away with a lot of the "frills" of the business, and really cut back on advertising. Once i realized it was ok if someone else had something cheaper and I may lose a sale to them, I became a happy man!! Im actually having a better time owning my business now then when it was Exceldetail!

Your call. CLEAN tires are imperative. I have had excellent results using the Tuf Shine Cleaner. But that doesnt mean that something else wont work equally as well......
