eagle one chrome and wire. spray it on. rinse it off. i used it. also to shine up stuff. i use black magic tire foam. leaves a little oil look. but it goes away and the area you put it on still shines nice.

i'm not sure. maybe clean under the hood with a hose and purple power. to shine up. maybe take a rag and shine the parts you want. it is for tires. read what the can has in it. making sure it wont damage anything.

This is what we us to do for car shows we would enter. Our engines stayed fairly clean anyways no caked on mud or anything just normal road grime. We would wash the whole compartsment with Simple green we use that cause its safe on plastics and rubber other degreasers may damage plastic and rubber. Spary everything down with a good covering of simple green let it sit for a few then wash it off. Let it dry the use Son of a gun foaming tire spray. Spray everything down the whole thing with a cold motor then afterabout 30 mins comeback and wipe everything down with a dry rag just to get the real heavy stuff off and to even everything out. Works real good.

This is all on a cold motor!

 NAPA has some stuff that the dealers use to shine anything and everythin under the hood. It comes in 1 gallon jugs. The degreaser is called HotStuff I think and is red and the shine all stuff is blue in clear jugs. I am not 100% on the names but I am almost sure about the degreasers name. They are usually side by side on the4 shelf and work great.

I wouldn't use wd40 it is petroleum based and eventually dries out seals and hoeses.
