found this old pic, nice and clean! shame the car was sold.

man thats really clean, reminds me of when i first got my car.

damn I really have to clean my engine bay https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png



after the e6k goes in I'll do some spring cleaning.

Thats really nice

Some degreaser, a 1500 psi pressure washer,

a sponge/non-stick cooking ware cleaning pad and some elbow grease.

And to finish it off a nice spray down with WD40.

Leaves it sparkling like a jem.

you guys ever try that. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/spam.gif

I imagine that would attract dust/dit....

I use a silicone based tire dressing that I get by the gallon its

about $30 a gallon and worth every penny, much better then the water

or alcohol based ****. Thats one of the reasons that engine bay shines so much.



Yes it attracts dust, but it also protects all the metal and rubber under the hood, easily wipes off with a rag with more dressing on it, or just give the engine a yearly cleaning like I do.

yeah you cant beat the pressure washer :bigthumg:

thats a clean 87

wow, that looks factory fresh. I use a few cans of "Steam Clean". I think Gunk makes it... works pretty good

What brand of cleaner is it? Did you use it on the metals as well?

oooops, first quote attempt... unnsuccessful! lol

Auto Magic Magic Dressing, its not a cleaner, its a silicone based tire

dressing, and while you are there, pick up some green engine wash, ****

is FANTASTIC on everything from engines to interiors, bio-degradable and

in 10 years of using it I have yet to see it dis-color anything. Smells really good

as well!

we use this orange based stuff, it works just like your stuff rob :bigthumg:

Auto magic had some red ****, I hated it, smelled like cinnamon or something.

The green blows it away. I use it, depending on dilution, for everything from

carpets, rims,engines, boats, and even washing really dirty cars in it,

like Jims white 91 coupe, lol.
