Tyre dressing recommendations

What tyre dressing products are you all using?
(Mud doesn't count)
Looking for a long lasting product that doesn't sling up the body work or disappear at the first sign of rain.
Tried loads over the years, best that I've come across is autoglym instant tyre dressing. I apply with a paint brush rather than spray. All other options considered. Landrover - turning owners into mechanics since 1948

Used megs in the past, find it slings off and leaves the tyres greasy. Perhaps I've put too much on? Landrover - turning owners into mechanics since 1948

I apply a thin coat and wipe any excess off, if i want a shinier look i then apply a second coat and wipe excess off.
I don't really find any sling off on the sides of the car, only tar from the roads (tardis gets that off)

Finishkare fk108as is my favourite tyre dressing. It leaves a nice natural look to the tyre .
