Your method is very sound, and I appreciate you posting it so that folks can learn. I've been detailing my own vehicles and engines for about 55-years. I have tried various methods and solutions, and for me, it does make a difference. In fact, I just finished detailing my 2013 Volkswagen BUG, and it looks better than new, especially the engine compartment. I was pleasantly surprised to see that you and I are using the same finishing spray from Stoner! I do use a different cleaner but in the end, mine comes out looking just as well as you're finished work. Heck, with the right technique I'm able to do it right from my chair. I'm not able to stand so I have to improvise.

first thing i want to say is thank you for taking your time to make this video to aide people in cleaning their engines. i am a mechanic with 17 yrs of experience and i specialize in automotive wiring. this is constructively meant to aide you in the future. what ive always found to be PARAMOUNT in electrical protection against both corrosion and water intrusion. dielectric grease being used in all electrical connections even when not intending to clean the engine its a very good way to protect all vehicles against dreaded electeical gremlins which more times than not is simple dirty correded or wet electrical connectors being the weak link in any electrical system. it does become time consuming and this isnt necessarily meant if your detailing another persons vehicle but if its your own vehicle and you have a hour or so it would be highly recomended for the life of electrical connections.. otherwise i did learn something about detailing and thats why i came here.. hopefully i didnt come across in the wrong way i was actually hoping to share some knowledge ive learned over the last 17 yrs. thanks for your time and hope i see more vids from you in the future.

If you have a carbureted engine then you most likely have an older engine type with distributor, rotor and of course older (and more vulnerable) wiring. I would be very careful with these types of engines as water penetration could be an issue. Rather than using the power spray technique that I show on the newer engines in my videos I would suggest that you use a more concentrated, focused approach. I would also make sure that the plug wires as well as all other wiring in the engine bay are fresh so as not to absorb any moisture. Having a can of WD40 is always advisable since it is great at spraying inside the distributor cap in case moisture somehow gets in there. THAT would be my primary concern and advice.

Years ago a shade tree mechanic showed me how he detailed the engine. I was skeptical of fire hazard but he never had a problem with how he did it. He would turn the engine on for a few minutes then turn it off spray WD-40 on most everything but not the exhaust then wipe it down with a rag. It really shined. Still leary of accidentally spraying exhaust manifold and catching fire but like everything else just walking out of the house can kill you lol.

I too have cleaned many engine bays. I've been big proponent of Simple Green spray or equivalent with a big sudsy wheel brush. Rinse with fine spray hose nozzle (no pressure washer). Then for really dirty ones follow with degreaser, rinse again and dry with leaf blower or start engine for a couple of minutes. ( try not to start motor with chem residue as it will infiltrate the outside air vent filter and get smelly in the cabin) Last is just any old brand of tire foam and coat everywhere. Allow to drip dry and follow with leaf blower. Allow to sit overnight - this keeps the odors from getting into the inside of the car if there is a ventilation filter. Works like a charm.
Great video, I used a water hose before, but now I'll use my pressure washer and wrap it up with total shine.

I have actually heard the opposite when buying a car. If you see an engine that looks real clean, it could be hiding problems that exist, like oil leaks etc. and that it is best not to buy a car that looks spotless under the hood.

Very useful and well made video, right to the point no waste motion. I like the Trim Shine idea, but one guy mentioned tire foam that might be a good idea as well. As for the foil, the Glad seal might work better and be safer, it clings well and seals very well compare to foil. One guy mentioned the pressure washer towards the radiator is a very bad idea; you need to keep the pressure away from the fins as they will bend inward and cause overheating if it is not detected, speaking from experience.

I actually was heading back to the detail bay due to the fact i had multiple complaints about electrical issues from customers within the last 2 weeks and when i would accelerate actual water would come pouring out of the dash! yeah guess how long the detail guy had been working for us before getting fired for ruining about 10 cars? he had been working there for roughly 2 weeks... lol no one knew he had been spraying interiors with the power washer...

@LirokuToragi

The factory water seals are meant to keep out small splashes or ambient moisture in foggy areas, they aren't meant to fight against high pressure water streams. A pressure washer can easily push water past the rubber seals and into connections. This is especially true on older vehicles where the rubber has been weathered over time. In either case, the battery should be disconnected, and any remnant of power should be allowed to drain down prior to washing, this prevents shorts from water contact and also would prevent any shorts from using aluminum foil. Personally I think I'd go with a regular hose, a couple of brushes, and washrags. Clean up that way, then use an air gun and air compressor to blow dry everything off before attaching the battery again.

The results after the Trim Shine are great here! Except I don't get why you don't scrub anything after spraying with degreaser. I mean, we both know that scrubbing something to agitate the dirt out will at least double your return on investment here by cleaning that much more...so why don't you do it? Between this and your How To Detail an Engine video, all you do is spray it and cover up the remaining dirt with Trim Shine. That "whitish film" you mention here after the power wash is dirt you could have easily gotten off with about 5 minutes of scrubbing with a brush. So, Y U NO SCRUB, CAR ANGEL?
@YourCarAngel
10 жыл бұрын
First off the power sprayer is doing all the scrubbing. There is absolutely no reason to take an unnecessary step with a brush. There is simply no remaining dirt. Even heavy engine oil is "scrubbed" away with the power sprayer. The whitish substance that is referred to in the video is no different then the substance you find on brand new rubber hoses from the automotive store. There is also a slight discoloration from mineral deposits due to the hard water in my area. The Trim Shine takes care of all of it. You simply cannot argue with the results. On average I do two engine details a week and this is the best method, bar none.
@tjcooke9

The white substance is corrosion. most general all-purpose degreasers will cause this. you should use a degreaser that is safe for aluminum alloys. Most heavy duty degreasers contain sodium hydroxide which is a strong oxidizer. If you are going to keep using it, you should rinse aluminum parts right away.

In my opinion it makes more sense to use a brush with gas or thinner to clean oily (engine) parts, then just spray it with brake cleaner. For all dusty (plastic) parts I use an all purpose cleaner, then a hot power wash. BTW nice trick with the foil, I never thought of that.

Nice video.. just one thing, the point you made about selling the car. Me personally if I see a really clean engine it tells me it's been purposefully cleaned because the seller is trying to hide something (oil or other fluids) that is not supposed to be there.. Just another thing to keep in mind, I personally like the engine to look normal (somewhat dirty but maintained).

What's wrong with soapy water and a brush after degreasing the engine? A well done job does not always come out of a spray can. As I see it you are hiding the remaining dirt under that spray product and that is not OK with me.

Soapy water might help you wash off any chemical cleaning agents but it wont leave a shine like polish. Whether you pour it on a rag and rub it in by hand or use a spray can is down to you. I think this guy is just demonstrating the speed
