Seems my tire shine leave my tires with a black thin tar like coating that rubs off and makes black marks on anything it touches. It is sticky too so picks up dust easily. What tire shine do you use and why do you like it?

do you clean your tires prior to dressing them?

I use BMW's Tyre Shine, leaves no marks after it dried. But it doesn't last that long.

I wipe them a couple of times with the soapy wash mit. Maybe I should be doing more.
