Default Armorall foamed it today

I did the foam today and it brightened up everything, some areas responded really well. Other areas I had to blot out excess foam as it conveerted to liquid and puddled up. Rubber, vinyl and black painted surfaace especially did well.
I. reasonably pleased.

diggin up an old post, but just want to know what anyone has figured out to use for engine bay paint that wants to come off (like the guy above). Seems like anything I use other than water will remove the paint on my car.
