Now that I've figured out the best products for my paint, I'm now going to focus on detailing the engine bay. I'm also looking to clean up my tires too.
#1. In regards to the tires, I've been using a can of Meguiar's Hot Shine to give the tires a "wet" look. I don't know whether I'm spraying too much on the tires or whether I'm using it too often. There seems to be a buildup of grease on the sidewalls. I'm not getting the shine that I did when I first started using this product.
Is there a different Meguiars product I can buy that will remove this grease and shine up the tires without leaving a buildup?. I used to use a spray made by Michelin and it worked good. However they discontinued making the stuff and it wasn't as glossy as the Meguiars brand.
#2. My engine bay is already clean but needs to be shined up a bit. What would you recommend using to shine up the hoses and plastic?. I've been using ICE on some of the plastic parts and it's been ok. But I hear people talking about using tire shine to spray on these parts. Is this safe for the rubber???.
In the past, I used A/C Delco engine shampoo and found that it dulled the paint on my 2001 Mustang (only the engine bay). I guess there wasn't any clearcoat. So I started using Spray9 and it's safe and works very well.
I'd love to be able to shine up this engine bay, but have no idea what I should be using.
Any suggestions?
