[QUOTE="12nox, post: 11264, member: 904"] Folks back here in Virginia bring me the muddiest trucks to detail especially after hunting season. I get a good warm day , my power washer and lots of mean green to do the under carriage. Takes a long time to complete,but afterwards I dress the chassis down with tire dressing and it really helps bring out the all the metals, gear housings, brake hoses, axles, and anything rubber. It puts the moisture back (but once you go down a gravel or dusty road, its shot all to heck). Same thing with the engine. Using tire dressing on a engine is great for city or black top driving. If your running on gravel then the dust will stick to anything you dress. Just like tires basically. Tire shine looks great on tires for the first couple of days. Then after that they dull from the pollution in the air. The good news is that a quick rinse and most of the dust will rinse off and your engine will bead up quite nicely! Not all the dirt will rinse off though. Tire dressing is like a magnet for dirt. Back to mean greening again lol. [/QUOTE]
