Yeah, if your going to repaint the engine bay, or at least areas that have bad paint.



Use oven cleaner! Heavy Duty "Easy-off" oven cleaner. That stuff will take the overspray paint of with ease, removes dirt if you let it sit there, then just spray it off with a hose... It takes everything off, exept the factory paint, it has always left that for me, but it has taken off the paint on the steering rack...



If your still cleaning try it! It makes life alot easier!

I was thinking of renting a powerwasher to clean and degrease it then wirewheeling the **** out of the engine bay (down to steel).. But I'm not sure. I'll keep your suggestion in mind..



The engine bay will be painted very soon in polyurethane gloss black. Tough ******* paint.

Nice... I've always wanted to try rhino lining an engine bay.... Probably be ugly though.

Haha..RhinoLining.



I think that would actually be a good idea. But doesn't that stuff go on like a 1/4 inch thick? overall it would probably end up being a big pain in the ***, but who knows.

You could really kick the **** out of the engine bay and it would still look good though.. But rhinolining is rough and not shiny..
