Damn Bill, looks awesome..
CD2?

i have never hit my car with CD2...you just have to clean it with every wash...it dosent take that much longer

Having seen Pat'* car first hand. Let me say..I like the CD2 shine that Bill has...it'* super nice, but Pat takes very good care to clean the motor. It shows.

looks good bill, as usual.... Looks like those hood vents are going to work out well!

You're missing a key point here bud.

I clean my engine maybe 2 or 3 times a year MAX. The CD2 keeps it from picking up road grime and dust. It creates a barrier the stuff won't stick to.

umm i have to look into this....does the CD2 loose its shine over time

I'm using the detailer once every other month. Like Bill said, its doing a hell of a good job of keeping grime and crap from collecting on the engine. When I washed it off, the crap that did stick to the detail layer came off in a simple spray. No need for any scrubbing. $7.99 a bottle here. The initial time I used it, I sprayed about half a bottle. Now, its just a basic coat.

Hey didn't I give you what was left of mine at NEBF?

Lookin' awesome Bill. One question about the hood vents though...wouldn't alot of water get in there in a downpour?

Water isn't a problem. How much water gets on your motor in the way of road spray on the freeway in a downpour?

Now think about how little water would actually hit the vent grid in the rain. Very little. I have thoughts about flexible vinyl magnetic covers for the winter later, but so far, no problems (think of the magnetic door signs for businesses).

Outstanding. Wish my engine bay was that clean.
