Simple Green

[elitecloud]

Went to checkers / Advanced today looking for a product to degrease / clean my engine bay - sales rep said try simple green so for $4.95 bottle i did

it comes in a "windex" type spray bottle, and is green with a minty spell - but it's still a cleaner

sprayed it on my car, let it sit for 10 minutes, and simply washed it off with a water hose, loooooks clean!!!!

simply amazing results i'm impressed 5/5

I hope the stuff is good the Air Force uses it to clean aircraft...so i think it will work well on your engine!!

We have 55 gallon drums sitting around here...only this stuff is full strength :P

lol i used it to ride bmx way back

[battistoni21]

lol^ i would imagine that would be pretty cool to do.....

i remember when we used to run over pop cans and get them to come up the wheel and end up sticking behind the tire so that they would make a loud noise like a dirtbike lol

Yeah thats all we use to clean andything and everything in the army. Its also pretty good with getting built up gunk out of a howitzer.

Ditto on pics. I swear I'd heard the opposite on this product...that it didn't work for S* but I must've been mistaken it sounds awesome

I just used this stuff monday after i finaly got the ho fixed and running good. I haven't cleaned the engine bay for quite a while and it was looking pretty crap now shes all nice and shinny stuff worked great for me.

we use it around the house and i used it on my rims one day when they were way dirty, i just sprayed it on for a few minutes, scrubbed and rinsed and they were nice and shiny. excellent multi-functional product :thumb:

Do you think it would have looked good without scrubbing? My buddy has a car with those spoke hubcaps that are a pain in the ass to clean...If you can just spray it on, let it sit and rinse it off he'd definately be interested

i didn't have to scrub persay, i just used the scrub brush that came with my mr. clean kit, and LIGHTLY brushed it around, no elbow grease at all, if you had a strong waterhose and could jet it i'm sure that would work just as well on the rims

[firstson]

I'll go with cloud on that one...as soon as you spray it on you can see the grease run off. a nice light scrub wouldn't hurt though

[violentrapture]

Pics? :P

[elitecloud]

work work work, letting engine get dirty again

i'll do it sometime vr promise ;-X

[battistoni21]

so just cover the alt and jst spray this stuff around? then use a hose and put it on mist or whatever to wash it away?

[63starfire]

That's what it sounds like...looks like a good find

Yeah he tried it and it worked real well! Not perfect for every nook and cranny, but they looked damn good for little to no work!

[battistoni21]

i got a bottle about 3 weeks ago and used it....

it seemed to work well, i noticed that it cleaned it fast....

i bet if i sprayed more in certain areas it would have worked better, but an overall A
