Amar, how so clean???

[RsMagic]

Don't you wish your engine bay was as shiny as mine. Took me three hours to get mine looking like this.<br /><br /><br /><br />

Hi Amar, copied this from foot longs post. Iam impressed, iam pretty good on cleaning the exterior of my car, but never really done anything other than a quick touch up in the engine bay.

Was interested in what products you used to get the results. Especially on the carbon covers. It probably helps that you have a low mileage 6.

Cheers Christian

looking very good there fella.

Cleaned it with G101 but you can also use Megs APC or AG engine and machine cleaner, some cloths and cotton ear buds for the nooks and crannies. Then afterwards you want to put some aerospace 101 protectant on it for shine and protection, it ain't cheap, but you can see the results yourself in the pictures. It is now quite glossy and reflective. I think it was about £18 for the bottle.

It looked like this (borrowed from a p'heads add)

Amar you need to fix the exposure on that camera m8 I suggest +1EV compensation or something it seems to have a habit of metering at least a stop short.

I am all over this clean like a tramp on chips!! Great work.

[RsMagic]

Nice one Amar. It looks spot on. It's really pushed me on now I've seen what yours was like before. I will have to do some before and after photos see how it comes up on mine.

Thanks again
Christian

Did you mean aerospace 303 protectant? Can't find a match for Areospace 101.
Is it this product. http://www.waxamomo.co.uk/index.php?app ... ef=303aero

If iam wrong Amar, can you post a link to the right product. Cheers.

P.S I found the other products thanks.

[bilko1]

He means 303, very good stuff don't be tempted to wipe it once sprayed on you'll see what I mean when you use it.

[Mr V10]

Yeah sorry, I meant 303.

[RsMagic]

Thanks Bilko and Amar.

Cleaning materials on order.....

[RsMagic]

So final got round to this clean. So here's some photos. Mine wasn't too bad before the deep clean so not as much of a difference compared to Amars.

I'm a sucker for a good engine shot

Amar, I looked at the Megs video, and they use a lot of water. I would be worried about frying something electical (like the new HID main beams Grizz is fitting) did you use a different technique?
