Our Process
-
Initial Inspection and Prep: We inspect the engine bay for any sensitive components that may need extra protection, ensuring all electronics and sensors are shielded.
-
Gentle Pre-Rinse: We apply a gentle rinse to remove loose dust and debris. This step allows for a deeper clean without risking water damage.
-
Degreasing and Cleaning: Using a high-quality, engine-safe degreaser, we treat all parts of the engine bay, breaking down grease, oil, and grime. We use soft brushes and detailing tools to reach all areas and remove stubborn buildup.
-
Rinse and Dry: After degreasing, we carefully rinse off the engine bay, ensuring no residue is left behind. We use air blowers and microfiber towels to thoroughly dry the area, preventing any moisture from lingering around sensitive components.
-
Conditioning and Protectant Application: To add a final touch, we apply a protective dressing to plastic and rubber parts, restoring a clean, polished look and helping to prevent future cracking and fading.
-
Final Inspection: We conduct a final check to ensure every detail of the engine bay is spotless and all protectants are properly applied.
