I drive a 2010 Toyota FJ and would like to know what Adam's products I can use to bring the metal parts of my undercarriage back to life?
<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com<o:p></o:p>
For example, my SUV sits tall enough to see my frame in the wheel wells, the rear axle, the rear control arms...basically all the big drive train parts that come with a cruddy black factory paint job to prevent rust. You know the parts that look super faded and dull after about the first 5000 mi or first off road adventure. I do crawl under the FJ every wash to give these parts a quick wipe down with the extra soap and water left in the buck at the end of the wash but I don't get crazy with cleaning them. After a quick swipe with the wet towel the rear diff will come back to life for a second, but as soon as the water dries it's immediately dull and ugly. Because my SUV is still new I don't have a bunch of rusty axle tubes or control arms, I would like to at least get some shine to them while I can. In the past I have simply hit these parts with a can of aerosol tire shine, but that is streaky and last for about a week. I tried some Adam's Undercarriage spray too. It is also streaky on metal but does last longer. I tried wiping it in to get rid of the streaks but I basically wiped off the product because, again, its a metal surface and nothing is absorbing.

So what Adam's product could I simply and effectively (read: not spend a lot of time under my FJ) use on the metal components of my drive train to basically make them not look dull?<o:p></o:p>
