Its unreal. Nothing I have tried even comes close. Not even a fair fight.

My bottle of pig spit sits unused as it isnt as good on the motor as this crap and it acts funny when used over my McGuires 3 step stuff.
Not to sound like an idiot, but this stuff is just for the blacked out portion of the motor correct? Also, does it damage the chrome or other surfaces if it gets on those?

Yes,it's just for the blacked out portion. Overspray doesn't seem to have any effect on other surfaces but it doesn't hurt to wipe off excess. The can comes with a little tube that you insert into the spray nozzle,so it's very easy to control. This stuff does an amazingly good job.

I'm talking about the S-100 engine brightener,haven't used any of the other stuff.

Good Luck

Tom

I've been wanting to try that but am skeptical that something you spray on and hose off can really work. Think you've convinced me it's worth a shot.

Edit: oops, got it confused with the cleaner. I could definitely use the brightener too, engine black is getting faded.

I use both... S100 and Pig Spit... S100 engine brightner on the motor and wrinkle black and Pig Spit on everything else works great for a fast polish job.
