After following the advice of some board memebers I just wetted down the engine bay first and sprayed on some simple green and rinsed. Afterward I hit it with a 230mph leaf blower that did short work of puddeled water. Then I used some Turtle wax plastic/vynal protectant.

Here are the results:

 

Looks like pictures out of an SVT pamphlet!

 

Very nice i'll be doing this after i get my truck back from the body shop

 

Looks GREAT!!!!

 

Looks very nice.

 

unless they detail it plan on it!!!

 

Svt360, that would be very nice and suprising. We'll see i'll let you know if they do.

 

Is the Turtle Wax stuff you used similar to Armor all that I recommended?? Just curious because I have never used any alternate brands. Looks great!! I forgot to mention the leaf blower, they work great!!

 

Hey guys - quick ?

Can you hurt the L hosing down the enginewhen it is still hot?? I just don't want to hurt anything. Can't imagine I would, but just want to be sure.

Thanx in advance,

JP

 

EvilGuy - Looking Good! Looks like it's time to flush your brake fluid too.

Pwr_Whls - I wouldn't spray cold water on a hot engine. You could crack something.

Yup, the turtle wax is very similar to the Armor All, it's milky.

 

Please don't even think about doing that much less, doing it! I only wash/clean my eng. the morning after my L has had a night's rest .
