Engine bay cleaning?!
it's a petroleum byproduct. just like kerosene and diesel.. ever smelled the stuff? Last time I used it and tried to hose it off my driveway, it acted like its own oil spill. only use it on dirt..
i like simple green, pressure washer.. use regular concentrated simple green, not the Xtreme stuff. it sucks
glass cleaner first for plastics
also mcguire's back to black is awesome on plastics (it's milky white, smells like clearcoat, comes in a little red bottle).. it does not attract dust like armor-all.

What he said... it's a good idea to use a (not insanely stiff bristle) brush to get any bad spots that won't just rinse clean. Don't let it dry completely before rinsing.
What about steam cleaning. Get one of those Marines in SoCalMuscle to sponser you in to Camp Pendleton Auto Hobby shop. They Got the equipment and for 5 bucks/hour. It's located by one of thier 4 point lifts so you can even do the undercarriage.

Simple green works great just dilute it as mentioned. Most of the electrical on newer cars are pretty water tight, just dont sit there and spray it constantly. I would not use a pressure washer or a steam cleaner. From what ive heard steam can get into electrical components and damage them, or connections and cause them to rust etc. I always use simple green diluted and some rags.
well when i got my car 3 months ago i asked the owner how he quept the intake and airbox and all the other plastics so clean and shiny...he said wd40 is it ok to use that?? what do you guys use for all the plastics??????????
The steam cleaning idea sounds good! Ide love to get all the under carriage and **** too. make it look like new. Where is it located? And is there any cemicals or soap used with the steam cleaning? or is it just hot *** water?
lol i well isnt hot water over the temp of 212 lol steam haahha jk, i have a heated pressure washer at my work and some bomb as degreaser
