    Engine dressing

    I have searched the forums but I really couldn't find anything else to use besides the 303 Aerospace Protectant and Pinnacle Vinyl and Rubber Protectant for Engine Dressing. It kinda seems like AGO is a little weak in this area (please take this as constructive criticism).

    I'm interested in something water based and I don't know if 303 is a water based product. If anyone knows any other products that would be helpful. Please understand that my engine is just as important (and I want to show it off proudly) as the paint that is on the car. Thanks!

    303 is water based and safe for engine dressing.

    CD2 Engine Detailer is dope, but unfortunately AG does not carry it. It's also hard to find except online at ridiculous prices (compared to what it was just a couple of years ago...)

    I use black WOW on all the plastic parts. Been on there for 6 mos. and still has a nice sheen. At first it collected a lot of dust, but after a few wipe downs it's good now. Guess it needed to cure.

    dont use anything with silicones or the glossy gel dressings that dont fully dry, it attracts dirt and dust. 303 on rubber, and Klasse AIO on painted surfaces.
