Default Body and Chassis silicone spray
When I was at Motorama last weekend the Odonnell guy had a silicone spray to keep the chassis and the body clean. Its keeps the dirt from sticking and makes easyer to clean. Do anyone know of a spray that does that?

We use GT85, however any silicone/PTFE based spray should work

I know some people who have been using them for their bodies with no problems. I personally use pledge for my bodies and prep and shine for my chassis. Just make sure not to spry on the brakes.

We are using Kalgard Prep & Shine on the Chassis and the new Pro-Shine on the bodies.

Pro-Shine will be hitting dealers next week. My first order is on its way and I will have plenty at PNB in Atlanta this weekend.

"heavy duty silicone" in the red can at wal-mart, its like $2 over by the wd-40 isle and it will spray the car down 10 times before its empty. i don't race without it. after the race, tap tap and air compressor, done. tires still have to wash.
