I think 'wire loom' was referred to along these lines:



It's a hollow plastic tubing that many use to organize wires running through the engine compartment (or elsewhere). In a nutshell, it cleans up the clutter.

RR are you going senile in your old age!? No I'm kidding. I was talking about what RP is thinking, he's got those wires in the back. No one likes wires sticking all around in their engine bay !!

I thought we was talking about those wire brushes they use to take out the bends and dings in the radiators.

Old? Geeze I am only 35.....and not even drinking yet tonight.

No need to ease up... it doesn't bother me. And besides, I don't own a comb.

You bring up a good point. I am a member of several forums and to be honest this is the one I have learned the most from. Those that live in this section like me, do our best to asnwer questions and provide guidance. There are many pro's in this area and the best thing is that we are all very passionate about our trucks. When starting out or working on problem areas, it can be frustrating, so there are no dumb questions.

I would encourage you to read some posts, review the sticky, and try out the search feature but by all means, if you have question, ask it. We'll do our best to field them.

2 questions:

1. How long does Hyperdressing last? If I clean my engine really well, then use poor boys trim restorer would it last/ pretect longer or look better?

2. How do you apply it? Do you have to clean the engine first. I hate sparying any water around my engine/ Intake. I even hate cleaning my Harley Grill because I know water is getting into my engine compartment. My heads already look like HELL! I dont need anything else to.

PS: Megs DA G100 kit and polishing pads come any day now, You guys think you've seen OCD, well you aint seen Sh*t yet!

Answer 1. It lasts as long as it lasts....vague answer b/c it depends like every product. Climate, condition, rain, mud, how you use your truck etc. Hyperdressing on an engine should look good for months pending you are not driving in the rain every day. And when it's clean, you can apply more if needed. Hyperdressing is a unique product that can be used in many ways. I have seen it actually work as a cleaner and dressing . For instance, if the frame and undercarriage have a little dust and dirt, it somehow magically makes it look not dirty. (disclaimer: your results may vary due to differences in definition of dust and dirty and vision issues that you may or may not have)

Answer 2. You apply with a chemical resistant spray bottle and head. Mix it up in the ratio you like and spray away.

PS Answer: ummmkay
