    MARVEL MYSTERY OIL in an SS cobalt?

    OK well i figure for 4 bucks even if it is snake oil, I'll give it a try. I will get some today and put it in my gas. I will probably wait until next oil change to add it to the oil. I am not sure what the OCIs were with the previous owner, which is why I want to make sure its squeaky clean in...

    How to remove overspray...

    OK the rubbing alcohol did not work, but i ended up buying some "aggressive" strength clay bar and it takes it right off. The clay bar i had before i guess wasn't strong enough but this stuff works great. Thanks a bunch guys.
