In-Depth Review
Professional Results Without the Petro-Chemicals
Traditional tire shines are often loaded with petroleum distillates and heavy silicones that 'sling' onto your car's paint and leach into the soil every time it rains. Gyeon Quartz, based in Incheon, South Korea, has revolutionized tire care with Re-Tyre. For the expecting parent, this means one less bottle of hazardous chemicals in the garage where children might eventually play.
Re-Tyre is a water-based formula that utilizes Sio2 (silica) technology to bond with the rubber. It provides a deep, satin finish that is dry to the touch, meaning it won't attract dust or splash onto your baby's stroller when you're loading it into the trunk. Because it is water-based, it is far safer for the environment and the person applying it.
- Non-greasy, matte-to-satin finish.
- UV inhibitors prevent tire browning and cracking over time.
- Concentrated formula: a small amount goes a long way.
| Base | Finish | Longevity |
|---|---|---|
| Water-Based Sio2 | Satin/Natural | 3-4 Weeks |
Pros
- ✓No sling
- ✓Excellent UV protection
- ✓Safe for driveway runoff
Cons
- ✗Requires thorough tire cleaning first
- ✗Not a 'high-gloss' finish
