[@tim_perkins]

Another great video. Thanks for doing a engine cleaning video. I like to see other people's way of doing it. Just so i can pick up tips and tricks to compare to my way.

Tim! How's it going man? Hope all is well Your way. Yeah, I wanted to do a Complete touchless wash on this entire vehicle. Turned out okay overall. The paint is bad on this one. Tiny Cracks everywhere in it. Crows feet... a.k.a. Lacquer Check..never good. Any way, the engine bay turned out Superb after dressing it! Thanks for watching Tim! Take Care!

Hey Thank You very much! Running into a ton of issues. Crows feet, staining in the paint, polishing the hood right now but that will be all that gets polished. The whole truck needs it but I'd need it two days. Afterall, this was supposed to be a wash n wax.🤣... I don't mind going a little extra but this one's Rough... I better get back at it. Thanks for checking this one out. I appreciate that! Take Care!

Nice . I have the same angle tip . Pretty handy . I wouldn't worry about getting engine bays wet . I do 10 a week . Today's engines are pretty tight unlike the 80s , early 90s .

Hi Derrick! Thank You for the compliment and the advice. I agree. Modern engines are pretty water tight! The engine bay was my best piece I did on that truck. The paint was rough. It has cracked Clearcoat so as a whole I wasn't happy with the out come. I guess you can't win them all. Thanks for watching. Take care!

Awesome video and tutorial brother. Came out awesome brother

Overall the engine bay did come out great. The pickup has Gloss but his paint is pretty much shot. I wasn't thrilled with the outcome as a whole.. looked good NOT GREAT! The clear coat was bad... Crows Feet(Cracking)... thanks for watching brutha!

I don't know what people think happens when you drive through a torrential downpour...the entirety of the engine compartment gets saturated. The only difference here is pressure and only an idiot would direct pressure into electrical connections and engine seals enough to cause a problem.

I've heard this debate FOREVER. I usually use a garden hose and agitate the grime by hand... this was very effective and quick.... I haven't experienced anything negative .... thanks for watching

[@hartlanddetailer5670]

Doug, you don't have to apologize for agitating an engine. As you know, most dirty bays require agitation. Nice Job!

[@detailit]

Morning! Yeah I was just trying to do it touchless.🤣 it turned out pretty good overall. The pickup as a whole, not so much. The paint was cracking... thanks for watching. Have a great week🤘

Maybe u can help me out bud i got this product and diluted it in 5 gallon containers, i gallon product and 3 gallons of water is what ive seen on u tube from chem x himself..and getting real.bad water spots that i have to clay bar off.

[@detailit]

The first thing that comes to mind is bad water quality. The second thing is, how long after you rinse, are you drying? On hot days u need to be a tad quicker than normal in my experience.
