thanks

I use simple green or any good engine spray degreaser just be careful where you spray it and make sure your engine is cool. If you clean it each time you wash it will always look great, just be sure to cover your intake filter if you spray the engine bay and any other things that need to be like your PCM. For electrical parts like your alternator there is some electrical cleaner in a spray can as well, all of this can be found at any autoparts store. I plan on doing a detail job on Daniels when he has time. Once it is clean of dirt and grease I will spray some CD2 engine detail spray, its like armor all for the engine but it does not attract dirt and gives it a nice shine
