Ls1transam Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 (edited) Cleaned my moms daily for her today. Cleaned her "fancy" truck the other day as I call it lol. Her daily gets neglected, you'll see why in one of the pics lol. All Adam's products used here, besides the drying towel. Washed with mitt and Wash N Wax. Cleaned wheels with Adam's soap and tires with Adam's fenderwell brush. The wheels are rough that's why I used the fender brush. Engine bay was done with APC and Adam's fender brush and Lug Nut brush. After it was dried I used VRT and In&Out spray as the dressing. This is a 230k mile daily. I didn't try to get the engine bay perfect. Because we'll, it's an old car lol. I was just bored and figured I'd give it a once over.

falcaineer Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Nice work, John! Did you spray the engine down before and/or after? If so, did you need to cover anything? Lots of discussions on here about how to clean the engine bay...just wondering what worked for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of discussions on here about how to clean the engine bay...just wondering what worked for you. I always cover the alternator or any exposed wiring with a bag first. Then I spray the engine down and begin cleaning. And spray down again after I've agitated the dirt. Before starting the engine I always blow the engine bay dry, then apply the dressing. And I always use a water hose. I never use a pressure washer on the engine bay. falcaineer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
