Oh My!!!!! Because of this very video, I bought 1 can of super clean, and cleaned my Tacoma engine that has never been cleaned since new, I only used a water hose and a shop vacuum to suck water out of valleys, and I'm blown away how clean it looks now, it took a hole 20 minutes to have sparkling engine.

Scott: Love the videos. I noted the your reason for using the aerosol SuperClean is to that you don't have to do all of the pumping using a trigger sprayer. What about using the SuperClean liquid concentrate diluted appropriately in a small pump up sprayer? That seems much more cost effective and you don't have the waste of disposing of empty aerosol cans.

[@michaelmorell7451]

I definitely would have protected those caps on the battery from the super clean. Car batteries are not sealed 100%. Those caps are actually vents for the battery, and has a high potential of letting in pressurized water or air if aimed at it. Free flowing water would have been better on the battery IMO. Distilled water, no big deal. A cleaner or anything else is super bad inside a battery. I would have removed the battery caps and cleaned all the excess water & possibly super clean out before ever pulling out the blower. Probably topped off the battery at no charge, since I had some distilled water left over. Scott, knows what I mean. I Love the Super Clean product

Great video and nice results. I would go slower with the pressure sprayer instead of going over the engine several times, I would rinse the area until it was free of the detergent. Thanks for posting.

[@liammcclelland7672]

Good job buut, always disconnect the battery so you don't end up with an electrical short. Engines are made to take on water, from the bottom. The components are made water tight however, over time their seals loosen up the to heat etc. And the pressure washer may not have been your best bet.

[@Killashandra111]

I 100% agree on that assessment that’s why I gave this video a thumbs down. I can’t even imagine the amount of water that was forced into all the electrical connections because of the high pressure. OMG!

I love this video for this reason: Scott cleaned that engine bay in real time and it only took about 12 minutes to do it! These are the videos we need to see so we know how long these steps actually take so that those of us getting ready to start our own businesses(Moi) know how long these jobs should take. On a side note though, Scott probably took longer to dress the engine than he did washing it, but that's ok since the final details always take the longest...

[@jrthemaverick2361]

Hi Scott, I watched this about 4 years ago when I was selling an 8 year old Odyssey. I picked your approach out of a number on detailing engine bay. It was great, easy and effective. In fact when the first guy came to see the car, he took it for a ride, came back crawled around underneath and asked me to pop the hood. When I saw his face, he was perplexed - why does the engine look like it just came off the line at Honda? were there leaks, major engine work, etc, etc. Fortunately, the rest of the car showed as mint so I just told him that I detail the car myself and take excellent care of my vehicles. 'Nuff said. Closed the deal right then. I just bought a 2002 Vette convertible. Car is mint exterior. Interior and engine bay need some love. I'll be watching this and some other videos you've done to study up before i start. One question about the roof. It is an OEM replacement in the past 5 years - looks like new. I was thinking of using Ragg Top cleaner and Protectant on my roof. Any experience with this product? Thanks again.

[@ecidemon5672]

I see a lot of people in these comments saying how they clean *their own* equipment when all it costs them is time - when you're doing it for a living, you do what the customer pays you to do. Lots of free work will put you out of business when everyone starts to expect you to work for free. You can work for yourself for free all you want, so what if it takes you an entire afternoon or the whole day, you're not paying for someone else's time or a very specific service. When you go in an pay for an oil change, do they also change your plugs, wires, etc, for free?

[@jbslittleshop2897]

I have watched a couple of your videos. Learned a bit from them. But... number one. If your not removing most of the plastic parts to get down to the actual engine your not cleaning the engine only the plastic and rubber parts. Next what about the bottom? I always go under to clean also!! That cleans up any oil leakage from oil being added and running down the engine. Just something I see. I'm sure your either detailing for a car lot or regular customers. But the job is not complete until the entire engine is clean! Anyway, like your vids. Just had to comment.

[@dallaspaintcorrectionautod8343]

the client is given the option for all plastic covers removed but this will cost more since i don't work for free:)..about 95% of all customers just want what we call a top side clean when it comes to engine bay cleaning..my customer wanted this service done, and again that is the norm when dealing with the buying public...but yes i also do FULL engine cleaning for those that request or need it but i always offer and leave it up to them:)

Some say he talks too much, He just wants to make sure you understand what he's trying to teach you. He does great work, so, unless you are a pro and can do better, quit complaining and start listening. Who knows, you may make some good money as I have by doing it the right way.

Would you like to do a video which explains the most common parts of an engine bay? And how to protect it when we want to wash it? So thank you very much for sharing your experience and wisdom.

[@gw8827]

Scott, really enjoyed this real-time demo. A thought - It might be possible to reduce even further the amount of water used to rinse cleaner if you worked your spray in only one overall direction, e.g. start at the front of the bay (radiator cover area) and work your rinsing movement back to the firewall. You might net a little less water in the engine bay. I think "less" is always good when it comes to water in an engine bay. :-)

[@cotydavis6676]

What do you have to cover up to keep from messing anything up? You're spraying really confidently. I want to clean my engine bay but I'm terrified of shorting something out. How do I keep from doing that??

If you disconnect the battery then you don't have to worry about what gets wet. Just make sure you dry things out really well.

[@longislandcerealkiller6385]

Super clean is great I been using scrubbing bubbles for engin cleaning in aerosol can works great

[@farmsgrace341]

That looks great. I have just one suggestion, though. When flushing the engine bay with water, it is a good idea to pull the negative lead off the battery and cycle the ignition from off to on then back off to drain any stored energy in the computer. You don't want any electronics to short out if water gets inside them and they are somehow powered. I know it's not necessary to do this, but better safe than sorry. An extra 30 seconds or less of work could save some expensive electronics(sensors, switches, computers, etc.). Just a suggestion.

[@scottfirman]

I used to detail funeral home cars. The owner turned me on to super clean to do the engines on the vehicles I had to clean. Even the engine bay had to be cleaned twice a year! They had white vehicles with gold trims. The owner taught me how to detail a vehicle and I have cleaned my own vehicle like that every year at least twice a year now I detail it. I do the engine bay every year in the spring to remove salt and mud from the vehicle.

[@InktronicsBlog]

I finally understand! He says he uses distilled water. That is the key. Distilled water does not conduct electricity. That's why he can spray it in an engine and not worry about anything. Regular tap water is a no go, the minerals in the water make the water electrically conductive but distilled water has no minerals.

[@Z00m44]

Less minerals then tap water but I think you're confusing deionized water with distilled water. Distilled will still conduct electricity.

[@HOTRODRICO]

@@Z00m44 correct i think as long as there is a chemical bond (h2o) it can conduct electricity...

[@beersmurff]

@@Z00m44 Water doesnt conduct much electricity. The impurities do. Distilled water is even purer than deionized water, so even if the H2O molecules conduct a minuscule amount of electricity, it's basically the same as 25 degrees of Celsius warm air. So you can pour distilled water on a batteri and it wont conduct more than the warm air around it. But you need to be sure it's perfectly distilled. Double distilling will help make the water as close as you'd want it when pouring it on or near a battery, but single distilled will most likely also be enough. A small shower of rain or water, even undistilled, wont short circuit your battery.

[@siseley1]

@@beersmurff WRONG..ANY H2O will conduct electricity, and the minerals in tap water are NOT a problem. NOW...using distilled water to wash the car and especially rinse it...YES, that would make a difference for no water spots.

I spent days and days removing the remaining spotty paint using lacquer thinner. It was a royal PIA. This video is nothing more than a giant affiliate kickback marketing banner. Lame af.

[@ericfranke1637]

@@stephanparis6887 sorry to hear. Super Clean can be used full-strength on engines, however it should be used diluted on painted surfaces (3 or 4:1) and not allowed to dwell for long. In fact, Super Clean warns to be careful when using it on aluminum, painted, and powder coated surfaces. So it's probably best to just use it diluted and rely on a little more agitation to finish the job and rinse it off relatively quickly on those painted areas.

Great job man, car is 11 yo so clips are weak and tend to fall, so as cheap paint on 3.5 normal!!! destilled water will never harm an engine, pointless disconnecting battery due to destilled water used here and clearly mentioned, never remove old car covers as they are burned and will surely brake, good move, that sprayer has a soft pressure so wouldn't cause any harm, great job keep up and thanks for showing your labour, do not pay attentions to harsh kidz we all know them 👍🏼

Scott, whenever you use distilled water (pure H2O) it's relatively safe because there are no chemicals in pure H2O to short out your electric components. Tap water from a faucet is usually loaded with calcium and/or sodium which will raise hell with electric components. So, great tip - - use distilled water 💦

[@NEVERSTOPFKUSA]

any protection on the battery? looks a little bit scary while pressure wash water hits the battery...

[@dallaspaintcorrectionautod8343]

[@kujiko88]

Lots of people fear shorting out the battery, which is why not a lot wash they're own engine bays. But as long as you don't use too high a pressure for an extended period of time, you should be ok. I'm about to use some similar tools to clean out my poor old Subaru. I'll use a plastic bag to be safe, but people with more experience don't really need to.

Yours was the comment i was looking for! Not only the electricity being a REAL issue but what about the housing for the battery NOT being cleaned!? They hide ALOT of dirt AND...AND, the whole battery needs to be wiped down and you can't do that while it's still in the engine bay! He MUST HAVE BEEN TIRED when he did this vehicle. I know i wouldn't spend that kind of money for someone to do a half ass job because they were tired.

[@Dubst3pT3ch]

Emily Irvin the customer paid a half assed amount of money for a quick clean. He explains that multiple times in the comments. But you do all your own cleaning right?

A Clean Engine is a Happy engine. I believe in CLEAN.

Woooh 2007-2018 Nissan Altima that’s a big number to jump lol but I see what you meant there no biggie

[@markmccullough2147]

[@edwilderness]

It's LA's Totally Awesome. It is.

It’s like taking the toaster into a bubble bath,that strange sound and smell when the water starts sizzling....☠️💥🔥⚡️ De badged V6 3.5 Silver Base right off with that powerful cling and closeup power-wash effect.

[@Smartskaft2]

Even though I usually wash my engine bay with a high pressure water jet, I just want to point out that it's in theory not the amount of water that could be damaging to the vehicle long term. It's the speed(/force/"pressure") that allows the water to penetrate contacts and small gaskets for electronics, that WILL corrode over time. But as I said, I do it this way too.

If I don’t have a leaf blower, can I just drive down the interstate with my hood open??

[@AlexRodriguez-li7jk]

Only if you remove your brakes

[@EnVee215]

Lmfao 😂😂

[@razak8528]

Shouldn’t you disconnect the battery first?

[@5jjt]

Certain Honda's would then require a specific 4 digit radio code once the battery is disconnected. This discouraged theft when designed. Also, certain Dodge models have to have their HVAC blend door actuators recalibrated at the dealer if the battery is disconnected. Theres more, but I'll stop there.

This is why he is using distilled water... Distilled water is not conductive.

@@ta2101 🤔😗🙄???

[@mr.monitor.]

@@ronnieperalta4051 is that a real question? water isn't a very good conductor of electricity at all without dissolved solids in it.

[@hassemsadiq]

Hi awesome vid is it important to clean under the engine bay as well

[@crag51063]

Bought to u by our sponsor .... super clean !

[@19MarkDavid]

If I'm going to scrub and power wash I don't need super clean, I can use dawn or any other car wash.

[@dallaspaintcorrectionautod8343]

sounds cool

[@Grenadieros]

Mr Scott why you didn't cover at least the battery?

[@queridagonzalez3278]

hey! great info and video! thanks so much!!! I'm wondering, would it he necessary to unhitxh thw battery as tp not short circuit anything, or damage the vehicle? Also, is there anything else that should not get water on it? thanks!!!

[@lostinmyspace4910]

Scott, I agree the high pressure hose does a great job, but I was always told high pressure water can get into electronics and cause havic with electrical components. Best to use a garden hose and let the water just free flow. Yes, it's more water but less high pressure.

[@TheRealBillc]

Except that the water sprayer in the video is not high pressure, it's low pressure and he is using distilled water.
