Engine detailing

I'm new to the forum, picked up my Sky RL on March 20th 07 - would anyone know the best way to keep the engine and compartment looking like it does now?
Thanks,

So far just wiping it and washing what is needed has been doing the trick. You can't let it get away from you. The hardest thing is the material of the Hood heat shield - it keeps drying with a mineral line showing that is hard to wash/rinse away. Beyond that -- I just make sure I wipe every thing down. Protect the plastic - polish any metals (like the CAI) and wipe it all down.
