The mechanical parts, engine and outer surfaces of the car become easily soiled with oil, smog, flies, diesel oil, grease and stains. What you need in these circumstances is a degreaser suitable to clean the car engine and effectively remove traces and residues of grease on the outside without potentially damaging the parts it is applied on.

How to clean the car engine with a degreaser

Let's see together a few handy steps to adequately clean the car engine

– Clean it in a spacious place outdoors, possibly in a car wash that ensures the dirt from the engine does not damage surrounding areas and is conveyed towards designated drain systems

– Protect the electrical parts of the engine by covering them with plastic (a shopping bag is suitable for the purpose). Excessive use of water might damage them.

– Protect the infeed of air in the engine from the flow of water. Once again, you can use plastic to cover the pipe.

– Apply the car degreaser on the engine parts

– Rinse with water, damp cloths or compressed air

– Let the engine dry until all the humidity has evaporated

– Remove all plastic items and protections used
