Why You Should Clean Your Engine Bay

An engine compartment filled with dirt, dust, and oil isn't just an aesthetic concern but impedes your vehicle's optimal functionality. Over time, the buildup of grime becomes a fertile ground for corrosion, putting critical components at risk and leading to reduced performance and potentially costly repairs. Regularly addressing the detailing of your engine bay is more than a suggestion – it's a necessity for preserving your car's peak performance, extending its lifespan, and safeguarding its resale value.

Our Intensive Engine Bay Detailing Process

  • Preparing the Engine Bay

    • To prevent burns, ensure the engine has sufficiently cooled down and is safe to touch. Protect sensitive components such as the alternator, battery, and electronic modules using plastic bags or waterproof covers, shielding them from possible water damage.

  • Degreasing

    • You can apply a premium engine degreaser evenly across the entire engine compartment, ensuring you follow the manufacturer's guidelines.
    • Allow the degreaser a few minutes to efficiently dissolve grease and dirt buildup.

  • Agitation

    • You can employ a soft-bristle brush or an old toothbrush to scrub areas with notable grime buildup gently.
    • Pay special attention to crevices, seams, and corners – these are common areas that tend to collect dirt.

  • Rinsing

    • Use a gentle stream of water from either a hose or a pressure washer to thoroughly rinse away the degreaser and dirt.
    • Exercise caution to avoid applying excessive pressure, particularly near delicate components.

  • Drying

    • You can use a microfiber cloth or compressed air to thoroughly dry the engine compartment, removing any remaining moisture from hard-to-reach areas.

  • Protecting Sensitive Components

    • Remove the plastic covers and bags that protect sensitive components.
    • Apply an engine bay dressing or protectant to plastic and rubber elements to prevent the risk of drying out and developing cracks.

  • Dressing and Shine

    • Apply an engine bay dressing or shine product to enhance the visual allure of plastic and rubber surfaces.
    • Evenly spread the product using an applicator pad.

  • Metal Polishing (if applicable)

    • If metal components are within the engine bay, use a metal polish to restore shine.
    • Gently apply the polish using a soft cloth, then buff it away to achieve a glossy and polished finish.
