Ive got both bilberry and very cherry, and tbh i think bilberry has the edge...both are great,also depends on your dilution ratios
Bit of a tip... spray some bilberry on the tyre side wall use a stiff brush and scrub,brings them up a treat ready for your tyre dressing of choice

I use Autobrites VC at the moment its non acidic and foams nicely on the wheel .I did hear its an alkaline though so not suited for frequent use . Blackfire Wheel and tyre cleaner is very good as is their tyre gel . I have swissvax pneu also but want to try the megs endurance.
