Engine Bay

Engine Bay

Engine bay products are designed to clean, protect, and dress under-the-bonnet surfaces including plastics, rubbers, and painted areas. These products remove grease, dirt, and grime while leaving behind a fresh, factory-like finish that improves both appearance and protection.

Before you start:

1. Engine Cool Down: Ensure the engine is completely cool to prevent injury and ensure product effectiveness
2. Remove Debris: Use a soft brush or compressed air to remove loose leaves and twigs from the engine bay
3. Protect Areas: Cover the battery, alternator, air intake, and other sensitive electronic components with plastic bags or waterproof covers

Cleaning the engine bay:

1. Apply Degreaser: Spray a suitable engine degreaser or all-purpose cleaner onto the greasy and dirty surfaces
2. Agitate Grime: Use a detail brush to agitate any heavy grease build-up and work the degreaser into the surfaces
3. Rinse Carefully: Gently rinse the engine bay with a garden hose or low-pressure washer, being careful to avoid the covered sensitive components

Drying and dressing:

1. Remove Covers: Carefully remove the protective covers from the engine bay components
2. Dry Thoroughly: Dry the engine bay and its components using a microfibre drying towel or allow them to air dry completely
3. Apply Dressing: Mist a dedicated engine bay dressing onto the cleaned plastics, rubber, and metal parts
