RE: Engine Detail
Thanks Prevan and to all of you.

The very next time you take a look at the engine , there are dirty spots. The problem is that water hides all the dirt and its impossible to verify whether you've scrubbed every accessible inch of it.

Has anyone had experience with the polo engine bays? (03-03-2011 11:35 AM)onyx Wrote: Something i avoid except for a wipe down every now and then! I've adopted a method that i"ve seen works better. While spraying the MPC liberally on the engine, I also spray it on the brush before rubbing, and then rinsing the agitated section with water. It takes more time though but the engine is cleaner afterwards. The downside of it is that as you work the top-down, water flows downwards and it becomes difficult to notice the dirt and leave them uncleaned. As for Polo engines, i never worked on it unfortunately. But as far as the the plugs and electronics, well I use one PaintBrush with MPC and another soaked in water to rinse by agitating it. It does quite a good job. Thanks again guys for your words and encouragement |
