So for all my PNW peeps that like to show their cars... what do you recommend using to clean your engine bay? Do any of you have HID setups and how does that hold up during cleaning? Thanks for your advice!!!

We dont actually do any detailing, we make and sell the product to do it with! If you are actually coming down for ToyotaFest, you'll be able to pull your car right into the garage for a one on one deomstration for whatever questions you may have!

Griots.........if you want the best........they got the best........and they will show you how to use it to......I have not found a product they sell that does not work as well as they show.

When I was showing the tC even after it was daily driven for two years it had less swirl marks in the paint than the day it came off the truck from the factory.

All from working with Griots,and I did all my polishing,cleaning by hand,if you use a buffer it works even better.

Their engine bay cleaner detailers work wonders,it kept mine looking like new,no dirt anywhere........give them a try.

So I used that spray on car wash stuff that you guys sell... Uh MAY Zing! I have been pimping you guys out to all my friends at work. I do need to come in and have you guys show me how to do a good ol engine detail cause mine needs it BAAAAAADLY.
Anywho... the car show was great fun and hopefully there will be another one there soon.
