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.

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.
