Meguiar`s Hyper Dressing vs. CD-2 Engine Detailer

[BuffMe]

Which do you prefer and why? Pictures very welcome for comparison.

I REALLY like CD2, and haven`t tried HD.



But when I run out of my CD2, I will order a gallon of HD. I think the HD is a bit more economical than the CD2, and I know that you can dilute the HD to desired strength.

Hyperdressing is a quicker way as you can spray it over a wet engine and it`ll dry evenly and look great. CD-2 needs to be applied to a dry surface and takes longer to dry. At times even needing the engines heat run at a few hundred miles to cure it and dry. CD-2 last longer.



I have both, but am running out of CD-2. I plan to pick more Cd-2 up.

I have been using CD-2 since 01 when I had my Mustang. It is now getting a lil harder to find, I will try some HD to see how it compares but for now I have 3 bottles of CD-2 left.

I havent seen CD-2 in years here in So Cal.

I love the hyper Dressing. Used to use the Cd-2 detailer, but it was just too slick afterward.

that looks pretty. nothing like a clean engine bay.

I prefer a matte finish but CD2 just works so well it`s hard not to love in this application. It`s easy to apply, lasts a few months and repels dust/dirt.



CD2 on my 330:

Found CD2 at AutoZone... $4.99. They seem to have as much as you want. They stock about 10 cans per store, but will order a case for you. (Florida info)

How you all apply Hyper Dressing to engine bay? Just spray every area and then wipe off? Can it also be sprayed to metal bodies like engines and other metal parts inside bay? I think it`s only for plastic/vinyl/rubber, right? Please help. I really want to buy this stuff but don`t know exactly what it will be like.



Thanks

The thing I like about CD2 is that it dries hard. It`s an acrylic and it leaves no oily film to attract dust and road grime. The sheen lasts quite a long time. Many of the other dressings I`ve tried are oily in nature and trap and hold on to dirt.

CD2 works the best for me.

Autozone and Checkers (CSK) carry out. For some reason they stock it by the degreasers sometimes :sadpace:

You do need to put newspapers underneath to catch the drips. And yes you need to start the car and warm it up to set up the chemicals but it is WORTH it.:bounce

I love using CD-2

I have used CD-2 for years on my TransAm and it works great

CD-2 for the win. If you prefer a factory look (I hate glossy plastic), buff the gloss down to a matt finish after the product drys but before you crank the engine to set the polymers. Even 100,000 mile plus engines treated from the start with CD-2 will look like new.



Well, as long as you keep them in repair that is.......
