Hi.

I've read a lot of detailing information about ex/interiors but I can see the way to detail the engine bay for 2001 CL.
Can you guys let me know specifically?

Thanks.

Does everyone use plastic bags?

mrclrider

plastic bags are for newbies...LOL!!!

So are the fuse boxes and alternator only parts covered by plastic bags? Is there anything else?

mrclrider

mainly really just the alternator..

You don't want to blast the motor with water, all your wanting to do is rinse it, so a soft stream of water should be fine. Just be smart though and don't fill up the areas around anything electrical with water..your fuse box cover should block out alot of the water if just doing a soft rinse, so just very little water pressure..

Here's a how-to article I wrote on this subject:

Good writeup. I think we should revamp the FAQ into something like the 3G garage with links like this.

Hey Todd, for the grime reaper, do you dilute that with water? If so what ratio?

TSC17

Yes...5:1
