I use 3D products engine dressing. Good quality product and makes for nice results when applied properly.

303 aerospace protectant. I use it on all my vehicles. Great for rubber and black porous plastics. It will not dry out the plastic or attract dust like a lot of other products.

I keep my engine parts clean by not installing them in the engine bay.

Where can you purchase this stuff at a reasonable price?

I got my last bottle at Canadian Tire. I’ve purchased it from a local truck accessory store previously. Amazon also carries it.

A great product that will do wonders under the hood is SC1 You can get it at Royal distributing or a bike shop

it is in aerosol format.. it is mainly used to make plastics on dirt bikes and quads look new (it hides all the scuffing and dull wear marks on bike plastics)

I use Silcone spray and just spray it on everything! Bonus is it helps protect electronics from moisture. I've been using it for years.
