I bought it, but have been afraid to use it, it's sitting in the garage. Worried I'll ruin something... can you just wipe it all down with a rag and not hose it off?

I spray SG on a warm engine, let it sit for a few min then just hose it off, works good as well. I agree, this is some good stuff

ya I use perple power, but its as good as simple green.

After i didn't not win local car show, because old judge told me that my engine was dusty compears to his Mustang, which was indeed spotless(1970 Boss 302 fully restored and have less then 1000 miles on it), i got nuts cleaning my engine. just don't get them on any electrical stuff, as i had some issue with that once(they turn crusty powder if left on wires)

You gotta get a girl with real small hands to get in there for you. They like cleaning stuff

Is it the lighting or is the engine bay a different or lighter color than the fenders?

Agreed!

What I do is spray simple green on everything, then spray it out with a pressure washer (car wash bay things work well, high pressure nozzle on a garden hose, or actual pressure washer), let it dry, then use tire shine on the rubber bits - turtle wax ICE polish on the plastic, and mothers on metal bits.... I only clean my engine bay every year or so though LOL

You guys taht are just hosing off your engines. Don't you have to cover certain things or do you just lift the hood and hose away? I would like to know what the dealerships do.
