    cosmoline a story of success

    After 10 years and $300 million us government dollars, the cosmoline genome has been cracked.



































    The Goop works on plastic and cast aluminum, doesn't seem to do anything on cosmoline over paint.

    Sweet to know!

    Did you just use a pad to scrub off? Looks soo clean. Did you polish or anything else? Is that the finish without Cosmo?

    Morty: Well Summer maybe people that create things aren’t concerned with your delicate sensibilities you know? Maybe the species that communicate with each other through a filter of your comfort are less evolved that the ones that just communicate? Maybe your problems are your own to deal with and maybe the public giving a shit about your feelings is a one way ticket to extinction.

        Sadly I discovered the goop method after the fact. The intake was hot tanked "didn't remove all cosmoline" and then hit with a few coats of paint stripper "worked Meh". The valve cover was bead blasted at work, only way to make it shine like that. FYI wear safety glasses when using paint stripper, my normal prescription glasses saved my eyeball from certain doom!



        Going into more detail:


        -The intake in the picture was just pulled off a parts car, Goop was applied for 24hrs then wiped off with a paper towel. No elbow grease.


        -The spark plug wire housing same deal, I didn't clean the whole thing because I didn't want to take it off the car. But just touching it the cosmoline lifts right off.


        -The skid plate "My first subject" goop was applied for 4 hours, then removed with a plastic scouring pad. Knowing what I know now I would have let it set 24 hrs.


        -Lastly I don't know why, but the goop method doesn't seem to work on painted surfaces, maybe it forms a stronger bond on fresh factory paint.
