I just had my engine dressed by Ziebart. $49 but sometimes on sale for $29. Man what a difference, my motor & compartment didn`t look this good the day I took it off the lot new. Extremely pleased.

Did you take pictures???
I would like to hear any comments on how to make an aluminum engine top shine like a mirror.What have you found to be the best product and how do you apply it? Thanks!
Look in www.autopia.ws/index.php and find the Metal Polishing article... it will be a ton of work, I can tell you that!
I wanted to make my Cold Air Intake look like chrome. I don`t have a before pic (sorry), but it was very smooth, but dull.
I used Mother`s Aluminum Polish and a buffer. It took about 3 hours to get this look.
but Bill, what do you think about the new GTP? I had a 98 that I traded in on my L.. I likey the paddle shifter . so are you thinking about going for the new one?

i used simple green on my friend`s celica and her engine bay was a little filthy. sprayed it down with simple green and covered the alternator and all electircal components. Left the simple green on there for about 5 minuts and brushed anything that I didnt want the water beating down on and then sprayed the rest. the engine bay looked like 100 times better. Now that I used her car as a test pigeon I will cover the MILLIONS of electrical components in my car and do the same.

Hey Bill,
With your last name, I can`t believe you`re not using "LusterLace." The stuff is fantastic.

Wanting to know is there a trick or something to get inside glass really clean windshields and back windows especially I always see spots I missed when I`m done ? Thanks in advance
First thing your going to want to do is quit using a window cleaner. Use water instead :soldier:
After you get the windshield wet, start wiping and don`t quit until the surface is 100% dry :sarge
Make absolutely sure your window towels are free from any type of fabric softner Da Rules!
Its also a good idea to leave your window/sunroof cracked so the interior can breath OMG!
Follow these steps and this will help reduce your frustration with window cleaning :wizard:
Trouble :-B
Another suggestion. If you can, turn the car to face directly into the sun, so you will be able to see all the spots that need to be re touched. Try cleaning with a waffle weave towel, and polish with a dedicated glass towel.
