just wondered if anyones got any ideas on how to clean my front mount intercooler.i have mesh in front of it on the bumper,so i cannot get to it with a brush.was just wondering if theres any cleaning detergent that i could spray on to it,and then lightly pressure wash the core?.

 

(TFR) Traffic film remover

mix up solution 1/2 an 1/2 spray on intercooler leave for 5 mins,gently jet wash off..
or go to a car valeting company,they should have this,there are 2 types 1 yellow 1 pink,go with pink as much better product,my husband uses this for work..

trace..x

 

great stuff,if not at a car valeters,where would i get this tfr from?,many thanx, pete.

 

A decent assesory shop,you might get it from Halfords or a motor factors,you could also try looking on Ebay..

 

Be VERY careful using high pressure near a FMIC, it can bend the fins BADLY in my experience......TFR is quite good, though air conditioner cleaner is also well suited to the job......

 

Agree,would also do the job,but on my hubbys pressure washer at work,turning the nozzle you get a fine spray,so protecting the fins..

 

Both R222 Total Auto Wash and Meguiars Super Degreaser (cut 4:1) also do a great job in this respect, and have a multitude of other good uses too (such as wheel arch cleaning, general engine bay cleaning, etc). Links here for more information...
