Please tell me more, cleaners used, areas protected (& how), any problems (or codes), did you hose off the intake and the engine in back of it? Anything else relevant? I've got to do mine real soon.

PM, email, or post is O.K.

Now that it’s clean…..Keep it that way. Each and every time you wash the Vette, wipe down the engine bay with a slightly damp cloth and it will always look good …..all it takes is 2-3 minutes to maintain that like new look!
