Very nice! What gave you the idea to use tire shine rather than the vinyl/rubber/plastic protectors?

Does tire cleaner work better? I wonder if it leave a sticky finish that will attract more dirt in the end.

stupid question. Getting my flame suit on....

Would it hurt to use a power washer on the engine? Cause at the car wash they have engine cleaner.

That is what I was going to say, you can get sprays that you put on, and then you drive to the car wash or something and use the power washer.

Never done it though.

Looks good Dominion.

^Yeah you can use a Engine degresser and use a watter bottle to hose it down. It kinda smells but it works great!
I would not just spray my Engine down but thats me.

You are correct, makes it worse. Looks good at first. It's also no as safe to use on particular hoses in the engine bay.

Also, take off the cover and let's see underneath. That's the tricky part to get clean.

Ahh, that makes sense. I was trying to figure out why it ran into the cockpit, but I never looked at it going to the battery or fuse box. I never knew you had amps though. Got a thread with some pics?

You know that accessories rob hp... lol just joking

does it steam when it gets hot? as in, the oil evaporating?

I wonder if he can uses both ends of the dipstick to measure the amount of oil. One end for the engine, the other for the outside of course.

I think it looks kinda good though.

No, no evaporating :) The Engine on the other hand lol well lets just say check it every fill up ;)

Depends how much silicone is in the spray. Over time it deteriorates the rubber compounds in hoses and such. If it's water-based then it should be ok. (15 years of automotive detailing.....yea I'm an old fart.)

Silicone you say? Odd I thought Silicone was not only good for boobies but for rubber too. Anyhow all that rubber is not going to last long with the heat of the engine.

fahrfegneugen

^me too, the owners manual recommends it. Of course, the tire shine can says don't spray on the tread too.

actually, silicone flatten things. they use it in hair products to tame frizz, and also inject it into scars to make them lie flat.
