Engine bay dressing

Re: Engine bay dressing
In the past I used Adams products. Leaves a shine with no residue.

Re: Engine bay dressing
For the engine I used "In and Out Spray". It does a great job on hoses and other black parts.
Are you back in Montana? Jim |

Re: Engine bay dressing
Lee,
I use Turtle Wax Ice interior: http://www.turtlewax.com/shop/produc...tectant-20-oz- You can pick it up at the Zone, Wally World, or most other auto parts stores. However I don't use it on my interior. I use it on my tires and on the underhood plastics and hoses. It cleans and does not attract dust while not having a shine. I am not much on "shine" I want it clean. Any metal I tend to use WD40 however you WILL attract the dust... -Daniel

Re: Engine bay dressing
I am currently using a product called "Trim Shine" by Stoner on the underside of the hood and on the air dam in front. O Reillys auto parts has it. Seems to be pretty decent so far. On my moldings I used Mothers Back to Black and then Aerospace 303. Use the Aero 303 on the inside of wheel wells too - not real shiny but makes em slick so stuff won't stick to it..
