[vxrphantom]

The engine bay is looking a little mucky these days so going to give it a good clean....Has anyone used the above product?

[Magic919]

I have but I wouldn't use it for that. Some Meguiars All Purpose Cleaner would be fine.

funny that just bought some yesterday for the father in law he reckons it the ducks nuts saw the engine today after it was cleaned and yep 10 out of 10 i got the stuff u use with a brush

Far cheaper just to buy a gallon of engine de-greaser from any motor factors.

Yep, it stinks to high heaven and wont come out your skin for a while either. Does work at removing oily grime though.

Blimey thats a really old product bit like the "hoover" thing , we used to say are you going to gunk the engine good stuff .

Any of the water based degreasers will do the job mate.

Run the pressure washer from the hot tap BTW

Oh

Stinks and stinks and stinks. Best wear your marigolds as it does take ages to get out of your skin.

It is good stuff though.

Is'nt it also a good idea to clean the engine when its hot if using a pressure washer?

Warm...NOT Hot otherwise crack, crack......

Maybe a flammable degreaser and a hot engine is an interesting combo.

I've used AG engine cleaner - very good and leaves no residue.

The best at the job, but does stink . I would only use it to clean an engine that was out.

I never let mine get dirty, no dust under my hood lol
I have used gunk loads of times and it works week after you let it soak for 10 mins or so then jetwash off.
