I'll give you this one.. that I found using the search feature..

 

You have a lot of questions, I have answered one, I think that rather than flood the forum with questions you learn to use the search features.
Here is another freebie.

 

180, thank you.

 

Thanks a lot, MrM, for the link ... now I have to go spend HUGE amounts of money on the car ... after seeing BrianBrave's engine

I had no idea that an engine compartment could look so good!

Shopping list:

Braided hoses
Anodized fittings
Color match paint for air boxes
Scrub brushes
Several buckets of elbow grease...the list goes on...

 

Freshly detailed and all cleaned up can still fall pale to some members efforts.. LOL. Mines a daily driver so as long as I can still read crossfire on the engine cover I'm good!


Just kidding, but no way I could spend hours to look like some.. then next week do it again..

 

True - true. Thanks for bringing me back to reality - I can cancel my kidney removal surgery now

 

Yeah I had looked at all the braided stainless.. orange anodized fittings.. bling city.. then reality hit.. 2 trips to work and back and break out the polish rags.. or be embarrassed to open the hood to show how dirty my bling was.. LOL.

 

~ head to the diy .25 carwash and select soap then rinse (hot water helps) ...no need for chemicals or degreasers. you do "not" need to cover a thing in the crossfire's engine compartment. i clean all my newer cars engines this way.

as for the pressure... i have used them for 20 years without any issue... ever. they do a great job with little effort and no product needed...

additionally, no issues with water and electronics... i do this at least once a month to my cars.

i use the same method to clean the underside of the hood insulator.

start at the bottom with the soap and work your way up (do not get too close to the material - 12" away of so)... then the opposite... rinse from the top downward and once you are home... open the hood to allow the water to drain to the bottom of the insulator (perhaps leaving the hood up overnight for through drying). pretty simple with great results!

and while your at it... don't forget the underside & well wheels... (and yes this car was a daily driver... rain & snow).

 

Thanks my boi I appreciate it
