There is no cure!
I want to say thanks to everyone that helped me out on my last thread. I had a pretty decent looking engine with the exception of dust and gime in hard to reach areas. I had never really given the engine a real detail and it was starting to show. Wipe downs only last soo long.
Pretty much all I did was cover the alternator and the battery plug that extends from the trunk into the left part of the engine with aluminum foil. I liked the aluminum foil since it let me mold it and cover the areas needed.
-Rinsed
-Meguairs Safe-D Degreaser 9:1 on all parts including under part of hood.
- Let sit for 45 seconds.
-Agitated wite a tire brush and scrubbed hard to reach areas with a black magic spoke brush.
-Rinsed using a light spray.
-Ran engine for 10 minutes.
-Washed my car
-Came back and wiped down all plastics
-Dressed Plastic Coverings with PB Trim Restorer
-Dressed all hard to reach areas with Stoners Trim Shine
BEFORE:
again, the engine was not bad to begin with but try to notice the harder reach areas. They are dusty and dirty and really didn't give it a detailed look.
