underside of bonnet
« on: 27 May 2009, 16:29 »
just got my car recently and been doin the best I can do clean it out. so far, its been quite successfull! interior and exterior pretty good (thanks to all the info on this site and some prompts from the old man.)

anyway, was wondering what you guys would suggest for cleaning the underside of the bonnet? and any hints about how to use it =)

cheers
Wouldn't be fun if it was easy, but does it have to be this much fun?

Is its heavily soiled/stubborn get some TFR or other citrus based cleaner.. dont leave it on for too long though(no longer than around 10 mins) as it may dull the paint.
