Gave almost 10 yr ole betsy an engine wash using autoglym engine & machine cleaner...I didn't think much of it...prolly just another "degreaser" in a bottle with a fancy price tag...decided to try it myself before I cyak...

Now notice the exhaust manifold and throttle body...for YEARS I been trying to clean that thing to some sort of semi-new appearance...tried MANY degreasers at full strength...nothing really worked...

A few sprays of EMC and slight agitation with a brush and boom...kinda shiney again...topped with AG vinyl & rubber care...EMC really suprised me

Before - pic taken before the sun went down

After...taken in the dark

Yes I know I missed a spot, phaggots.

Absolutely not, their products are awesome. It's only the HD wax I had an issue with which was weird, everything else is great.
