Description
Engine bays collect contamination that nothing in normal vehicle maintenance addresses. Baked-on grease, oil drips and residue from leaks, road grime that enters through the front, rust deposits on metal surfaces, and the general accumulation of years of engine operation create a dirty engine bay that makes maintenance harder and spotting new problems more difficult. Engine Degreaser is a heavy-duty formula engineered to cut through all of these contaminants and leave the engine bay clean, making maintenance easier and giving the engine the visual quality it deserves.
What Engine Degreaser Tackles
The challenge of engine bay cleaning is the combination of contamination types: petroleum-based grease and oil, road grime with a mineral component, rust and corrosion on metal surfaces, and baked-on deposits from heat cycling over thousands of operating hours. A single formula needs to address all of these to be genuinely useful for engine bay cleaning. Engine Degreaser's concentrated formula is designed exactly for this mixed contamination environment, working on petroleum deposits, mineral grime, and surface contamination across all engine bay surfaces.
Cleaning the engine bay regularly also makes spotting new oil leaks and fluid seeps easier. When everything in the engine bay is coated in accumulated grime, a new leak is invisible until it becomes a significant problem. A clean engine bay makes maintenance inspection faster and more reliable.
How to Use
Allow the engine to cool completely before cleaning. Cover sensitive electrical components and the air intake. Spray Engine Degreaser liberally over all engine bay surfaces. Allow to dwell for 2 to 5 minutes on heavily contaminated areas. Agitate stubborn deposits with a stiff brush on block surfaces, valve covers, and intake components. Rinse thoroughly with low-pressure water to remove all degreaser and loosened contamination. Allow to dry before starting the engine.
After engine bay cleaning, apply Engine Dressing to all rubber hoses, plastic covers, and engine components for UV protection and a finished, showroom engine appearance. For exterior contamination on body panels adjacent to the engine bay, use Citrus Tar Remover on any oily residue that transfers to paint.
