04 Cosmo GTO Engine Bay Clean w/ DP

Best $16 I spent in a while. AG has DP's Engine Degreaser and w/ a free Meg's Brush. Bought it last week to get ready for a show in two weeks. So I got a little bored yesterday and tried it out. I should have taken some before pics, but I didn't think about it. Consider this is the first engine bay cleaning I've done since buying the car about 2 years ago. Needless to say it was very dirty, and the hood liner was stained with I don't know what. But a quick spray of DPs stuff, a brush it up a bit and rinse and the hood liner looks good as new.

Thx DP, great product combo.

I used some 303 to get the color back on the radiator shroud and the accessory covers. Everything else is the way it looked after the DP cleaner. After the shop towel was moist w/ 303 I ran it over the intake.

I will always stand behind this DP line, especially a great match for detailers that are doing this for a living. You cannot beat the price and the quality of this line. If you haven't tried out the Interior products, that should be your next purchase...oh yeah and some Wheel Glaze!
DP .... the hidden gem!

Looking forward to trying my Degreaser. I have most of the DP line sitting in my cabinet and love it. I also love the cosmos, great looking color.

Ty, It was a tough choice between an LS1 and the LS2. But I opted for the Cosmo. Once I saw the Purple leather interior, my jaw dropped. I still get in enough trouble w/ my measly '350 HP'.

TY again
