I've been restoring some of the vacuum system on the wipers and cleaning up all the rubber grommets. I decided to try some Oops and it works great using just a paper towel and some rubbing. It removed pain over spray from where the last owner used rattle can black to freshen the engine compartment, grease, dirt, and weathering and now they look shiny and brand new. After I cleaned them up using oops I wiped them all down in denatured alcohol. Give it a try I think you will like the results. I sure did and it saved me $36 on buying new hoses.

After Shark said: rattle can black

LOL

Don't you just hate it when you inherit previous owners brain farts. I've spent at least a year fixing those problems all for the sake of someone trying to save a shiny nickel.
