Engine Detail Question

I would like to improve the appearance of the black areas over the fenders. It's a 2003 Vert. I have tried Vinylx and tire dressing but it still does look that great. Anybody have a product that will improve the look, thanks.

CD2 is a great for engine detailing, and I think autozone still has it.

Also, many marinas/boating supply stores carry the aerospace 303, that's where I found mine. GREAT STUFF! I picked up a bottle after reading all the positive comments on this forum and others.

I got a bottle of 303 from the local True Value. There is a "where to buy" link on there website. http://www.303products.com/main.php It is really good stuff.

Armor All Tire Foam does a nice job. I also use CD2 but you can't get it anywhere except two places in the Nation.

Yes. I have used it on painted brackets and things as well as plastic and hoses.

Wipe it on when using in the engine compartment, you don't want to get it on your belts.

I just bought some today. Did my dash and all the weatherstripping. Great stuff. Some Kragen stores carry it, or order online at Autogeek.

I just made a post in the Care Care Discussion Forum.
