OK, the question is how to clean the wrinkle black engine, not how to restore the the finish. It's quite windy and dusty here in New Mexico and we get this brown dust/dirt embedded in the rough black surface of the engine. Yes, I know that Pig Spit works great for restoring the black to the engine, and I've had good experiences with S100 Engine Brightener and OK experiences with Harley Engine Brightener for making the engine look black again, but none of those three products actually pull the dirt out of the surface, they just kind of seal it in. Gunk Foamy kind of works, but still leaves some dirt there, and S100 cleaner doesn't work even as well as that.
Any suggestions on how to lift the dirt out of the surface?
PIG SPIT out preforms S100 and HD stuff and lower cost. Was it cold engine mild soap. dry light coat of pig spit. stuff works wonders when used correctly. Do not use any harsh clean on the black until you have use pig spit on it awhile It will over time loosen up a lot of neglect
Use s100 cleaner at your own risk . It works for some but if it does damage it there is no coming back from it. And it has happened.
