Tip from the trade (when i worked as a valeter when i was made redundant once). Buy Autoglym Super sheen. It comes in 5 litres and is basically the vinyl/rubber care renamed for trade use. Clean the engine, then with it still wet spray supersheen over the whole engine. Remove ponding bits with a towel. Leave to dry, which comes out as a nice satin sheen thats looks blooming great.
