Default engine steam clean @ rcm today....

been down rcm today for an under bonnet clean,they (as always) treated my car like their own and done a brilliant job (thanks mark) the ****ty under bonnet sound proofing was removed aswell as it was a little tatty.i didnt get any before pics as i was rushing around this morning but my engine bay was very dusty as i work down a quarry but now its sparkling,almost as clean as their premises

Regular wipe downs to stay on top of it and then seal it with Some 303 Aerospace Protectant,it will keep it cleaner for longer plus easier for dirt to be cleaned off once you have sealed it with the before mentioned product,it is very good stuff.SJ.

Within reason you can just be sensible to avoid electrics etc... any over spray can be left to dry or pat dry and even out with a microfibre.SJ.
