So I see this thing for like $4.99, and figure, what the hell. It hooks to my compressor, and I think the tube goes in whatever solution I want, and it sprays it out. So, if I want to clean my engine and/or other hard to reach places of the car, what kind of solution should I use (for engine, and for underside, or wheelwells)?



And if I can't use it on my car, I'll just use it for cleaning the motorcycle! yay!



and I also bought a crawler (slide-under-car thingy), and an air ratchet! $19.99 each

 

so is it like a high pressure water spray? those are soo nice

I have the Campbell Housefield version from Wallyworld. Not as effective as a Pressure Washer

 

I figured it wouldn't be as nice as a pressure washer (though I haven't actually tried it yet). But I figure I'll be able to do less damage with it.

 

on my lunch break, I went back and got an angle grinder, with cut wheel grind wheel, and wire wheels $33.28

 

Angle Grinders are one of the tools where the price diff to get a name brand tool is worth the extra expense. I do have a couple 15.99 Harbor Frieght cheapies with wire whells on them. The Dewalt is for grinding and cutting. A much smoother cooler running unit

 

what made up my mind was that my boss said he bought a no-name from the same type of Cummins Tool sale, and he's used it for the last 20 years without having to replace the brushes



but if I even get minimal use of it before it dies, I'll consider it worth $20...then I get to buy a better one!

 

but what soulutions are good to use if you have a Pressure Washer and want to do an Engine bay clean

 

CLEAN

 

damn baldy is loaded
