Safe Tire Shine for Plasti Dipped Wheels

Hey everyone,
I did a search on the forum and in google and could not find an answer to my question. Plasti dipped my wheels the other day and wanted to apply some tire shine, but I have read on different sites that certain tire shines eat away at the PD. I usually use Meguiar's High Endurance Gel not sure if it will get on the wheel when I drive. Any ideas or recommendations would be awesome! Thanks

Ya i got the applicator pads and did that. It turned out fine just added a thin layer. I had read else where that while driving some of the tire shine would drip as the tires were rotating. I got a drip on the wheel by accident and the thing just melted before I could even dry it off with a micro fiber towel. At least its a temporary thing
