Since I've only seen Lwin's '94 and Doug's bays, I have to go by pictures. Hrm....Mike or Nubs, I'd have to see them in person to decide.

Someone want to post a howto on engine bay detailing with a Dremel? I've got the dremel, I've got the time - what do I do? What brushes do I need? I want to clean!

heh

It's not so much cleaning with them, it's polishing the metal components to a mirror-like shine. John's was amazing.

I've got one of them, it works great for polishing up stuff. Just goto like a jewlery store, or maybe a homedepot, and pick up some polishing rouge, it comes in this big brown stick, crank up the toy, get some on the big round cloth thing and put it to work. you'll have to keep putting on the rouge as it goes pretty quick. but for big jobs I usually use my hand drill w/ a really big cloth circle thingie. it works great on all metals. Anyone else have a compound they think works really well?
