For engine bay dressing......

I used CD2 Engine Detailer for years. Then the availability went down and the price went up.

Someone told me to try Stoner TrimShine on plastic, rubber engine parts as a substitute for CD2. Just as good and half the price, they said.

I've been using it ever since. Great stuff. Also works great on any black plastic trim. And if you do much detailing, you know that today's cars are LOADED with black plastic trim!!!!

Excellent product, highly recommended!!!
 
I've seen you mention that stuff before. My question is, does it work on all plastic trim colors or just black? I have some of it on my car, right where the wipers park, but my wife's XC90 is loaded with it under the front and rear bumpers and I haven't tackled it with anything except Zaino Tire Dressing yet (which worked fantastic by the way, but pricey to do that much).
 
I used to use CD2 as well, but the price was eating into my wallet very quickly. i can get it local, so that wasn't an issue.

I use Trim Shine, but not on engines. I have to order it though, but in the end, it's still cheaper. I try to keep 4 or 5 cans in my cabinet at all times so I don't run out.

On engines and wheel wells, I use Meguiar's Hyper-Dressing. The initial cost is more, but you can control the gloss by dilution ratios, and I love it.
 
I use it on wheel wells, tires, around the wipers/cowl and all the plastic and rubber under the hood.

I use Trim Shine because you recommended it. I must say it works great and I can pick it up locally which is nice.

Is it similar to 303 protectant or is it a different product altogether?

303 is more of a trigger spray water-based protectant. Trim Shine comes in an aerosol can and is completely clear. It is especially good for engine bays and plastics. I like 303 for interiors and Trim Shine for exterior/engines.
 
I got a engine/tire dressing from Detail King that doesn't contain silicone. I heard it was possible for a silicone-based dressing to screw up the MAF sensor. This product works very well and leaves a nice matte finish. I've use it on the interior, as well.
