I picked up some metal polish, not sure if it's any good. I could use some advice on how to tackle the engine bay...I've never bothered with previous cars.

Trev, Heck yeah! bikes need love too...

mlomker, metal polish is a good idea, engine bays are not so bad to detail, but I know you have alot of bling to shine!

There's still factory gunk in there, too. Not sure if it's safe to hose shit down with wheel cleaner or something like that or not. Anywho, that's what I'll spend some time on tomorrow.

I live too far away and am overly car-less to attend.

Have fun d00ds.

I'd love to come detail my car, but I no longer have a mitsu to polish up for the cookout, haha.

Big thanks to Shawn and his father for having us out today! It was very productive for me. I got my front o2 sensor replaced and the engine bay cleaned up pretty nice.

I took Shawn for a spin and blew a LICP coupler. It couldn't have happened at a better place--a couple minutes on the lift and we had it fixed up. We headed back out and gave it another test. :D

I bought some neat spray-on wax from Shawn's dad (Bulldog?). I need to find some of the metal polish that Shawn has...I think he said he gets it at the State Fair.
