Also takes the print off the VIN plates etc!!!

Just use Gunk, agitate with a paintbrush, hose off with normal hose (not pressure washer).

Be prepared for the stink though as the Gunk does whiff abit! LOL

P21S Total Auto Wash - will not harm any surfaces, but has the power to cut through all of the crap (tough stuff may need a little agitation). See the link below for example of it being used...

Looks like it does the same Job

Must admit engine cleaning is not my thing but I had a oil leak and could only find it by cleaning engine

Mind you when the Subaru arrives I will give it a good engine bay clean first
