They'll chew aluminum tape? I'll keep an eye on it.
They chew everything/anything...like the wiring we're all trying to protect? lol
They won't chew on copper wool. I know that firsthand.
Looks like the active ingredient is capsaicin in Honda tape. The big advantage is that it's made into the tape and, presumably, won't wear or wash off.You can also use this to protect wiring. It isn't cheap, and it isn't fun to install, but I've heard it works to keep the little assholes from chewing harnesses.
@shovelhd - after I cleaned my engine bay, I wiped everything down and let it dry and then sprayed down everything with the Doktor Doom solution, which is likely water and Denatonium Benzoate. Just a liberal misting on everything, including the hood liner, which was also chewed to pieces when my wiring harness was decimated. No wiping, I just closed the hood and let it dry. I checked a day or so later and it looked like I had detailed my engine bay - spotless and shiny new looking. ?
Living in the woods now I'm probably going to have to do this. Those are before and after pics of your engine bay just from spraying this stuff on there? I guess there is hope for my dirty engine after all.@shovelhd - after I cleaned my engine bay, I wiped everything down and let it dry and then sprayed down everything with the Doktor Doom solution, which is likely water and Denatonium Benzoate.

Try this product...I bet the Meces won't go near your engine again...Looks like the active ingredient is capsaicin in Honda tape. The big advantage is that it's made into the tape and, presumably, won't wear or wash off.
LOL, when I spray mine, it'll smell like your riding in a tube of toothpaste or an Atomic Fire Ball or a Spicy Burrito, depending on the spray of that day! =D
Neither will anyone else. ??Try this product...I bet the Meces won't go near your engine again...
No, I had the typical dusty engine bay - not super dusty like in AZ or some of the pictures on the forum. ? After I cleaned my engine bay, I wiped everything down with a microfibre cloth drenched in 303 Protectant ? ?Living in the woods now I'm probably going to have to do this.

, let it do its magic, then sprayed the Doktor Doom - that other pic is just to show the rodent damage, but yeah, it’s a bit dusty.
Dang, Mine's dirty again and I thought I found an easy way out.No, I had the typical dusty engine bay - not super dusty like in AZ or some of the pictures on the forum. ? After I cleaned my engine bay, I wiped everything down with a microfibre cloth drenched in 303 Protectant ? ?
Nope. There are no shortcuts.Dang, Mine's dirty again and I thought I found an easy way out.
probably like chewing on floss...
Pro tip...pull into touchless car wash with your hood open...haven't tried this myself but theoretically sound...Dang, Mine's dirty again and I thought I found an easy way out.
? That cost money. lol Wouldn't pre-treating it here and spraying it down with a hose do the same? ?
