Looks great except I think you need to take off your air intake tube and give it a good degreasing before applying. Appears to be some dust/grime trapped under that nice shine.

Man I do like the results of the CD-2

ZAXJAX..... CD-2 is what makes the engine shiny. It`s $7 per can. After searching everywhere, I finally found it at murrays auto parts. Most stores aren`t selling it anymore for some odd reason.

sowaxeman..... I tried to clean the intake tube. I soaked it with degreaser twice. I don`t know why it won`t come clean.

Do you just spray this stuff on, let it sit for a while, and rinse it off?

Actually you clean the engine first with a degreases or all purpose cleaner and let it dry. Then you spray on the engine detailer. It does not have to be sprayed off.

Yep - it is a detailer, not a cleaner. Clean the engine bay first and you just "spray, and walk away" For the most part it is like a tire foam product, except it made for heat so it can bake onto the parts.
