Engine Bay Plastics

[MadMartigan23]

I'm curious if using the Graphene Detailer/Graphene CS3 would work on Engine Bay Plastics?  Also, how is the Adam's Graphene VRT on engine bay plastics?  I feel there is only so much you can really do to protect those areas and both the detailer/CS3 and VRT would work.  Thoughts?

Works fine.  I've been using all of them on my engine parts for years, both plastic and stainless with no issues.

Yes, all would work. But of those, my preference is actually one you didn't list, Interior Detailer. As a spray, you can use it over the entire engine bay after cleaning and (mostly) drying, and simply close the hood. It'll dry and self level, requiring only a quick level if any and leaves an incredible finish.

Awesome, thank you for the feedback I appreciate it.

In & Out spray is still my go to for engine bay detailing.

^^^This, this, and this^^^
 

After learning this trick with the interior detailer, there’s no going back.  It also dries dry, so dust and such doesn’t stick to it like it would with a product that might otherwise be greasy or leave a film.

Ok follow up - LONG time Adam's customer and avid reader on the forums.  Have to say.....the Interior detailer on my C8 engine bay works like a charm.  For my instance I wiped down excess spray (a few drips) and I was happy with the results and ease of use.  The only thing is with In & Out Spray is using this product makes plastics, hoses, clips or trim a bit shinier.  Kinda sad for my In & Out spray lol.  Will have to find other uses for it now.
