Definitely is! I'm positive that I'll be purchasing more of it in the near future. Maybe I'll start doing engine bays locally for a few bucks lol.

I charge $40 a piece and when I run my ad on CL I get about 5 responses and 3 out of those 5 get them done!

Well now I am no longer special now!

Looks great my friend! I told you it was THE BEST sh!t on earth!!

It may be worth the drive to Boise. I would admit my stupidity to reveal that I paid a pro detail shop the going rate here of $200.00 to do what you do for $40.00. We have real hard water in Vancouver so maybe I will hook up a long hose to the compressor to get it as dry as I can get it. It only takes one time to leave a permanent spot. You should see the cars at the car dealers who hire illegals to wash their cars but not dry them off..they are ruined.

Well $40.00 is more than I would even want to pay, because I am a cheap bastard! However I figure $40.00 is ok, and really if you broke it down I would use say $3 dollars at carwash, and say $1.50 if that in chemical!

Yeh, I read that in the early post about it not harming paint, etc. but I could not believe my eyes. I thought maybe you photoshopped the dirt off. I would eat off your engine compartment or have surgery on it, it is so clean. I can't wait to get back home and try it. I love a clean engine compartment! Gee you must not drive around much in Idee Ho for it to stay that clean. How do you get the sagebrush rolling across I-84 out from under the fender wells, set it on fire?

I have gotten the straight chemical on my hands and it burns a little but not that badly. It is corrosive but only a little. Also I rinse engine compartment with spotfree rinse at carwash every time I wash car. Most of what collects in fender jams and around core support is soap that never gets rinsed off, or hard water. So if you rinse around edges of engine compartment it will stay nice for long time. I charge $40.00 per engine compartment when I do them for people and it takes like 30 min to do them!

I see there is a hazardous material surcharge, do you recommend a respirator and rubber chemical resistant gloves when using the stuff? Also, in your before and after photos, how much elbow grease did it take to get it that clean? I guess I should start from the beginning. What items under the hood did you have to protect with plastic wrap, alumimum foil or a Walmart bag and duct tape? I assume it took more than spraying on a dilution of Red Devil and rinsing it off. I used to use a toilet bowl cleaning tool, that had a string mop like end on my show Carmaro but I was dealing with semi-gloss black not body color paint and huge engine bay. Your engine compartment looks like it has been carnuba'd!

 

Also, since the stuff seems to be real potent what kind of items should it not come in contact with, like soft plastic and rubber parts, will it dissolve anything in the engine compartment?

No harm to anything in engine compartment what so ever. No I protect nothing, and in the massive amounts of engines I have cleaned (was detailing as well) Never had a issue, besides the occasional wet distributor cap. If you get it wet remove with 8 MM socket,, and lightly spray WD-40 in cap to dissipate the water. As far as elbow grease I am a lazy MOFO so very little! Only place I use a brush is on fender jams, and underside of hood. If your engine is real bad I suggest doing it the first time real heavy let set maybe wash the rest of car then hit engine, then do a second time.

So I take it since it won't allow me to add to cart I have to talk to a rep first?

You will pay less if you find it local anyways, just send them your contact info. Also their reps. are independent, so alot of the time if I pay cash I dont pay tax!

Mike did you really have to post all of them? lol

 

Anyways yea whats that link? I need to get some asap so when I detail the new sol when I pull the engine out.

Dude thats like 10% of them!

Costs me like $12.00 a gallon and it makes 2 gallons 50\50 with water. If you give them your contact info. they will have a rep in your area get ahold of you.

Its the top one Red Devil

Best stuff you can buy!

Forgot a good one!

Here is a good reason why I like my product. Safe on paint!

To be honest ive never bagged or taped my dizzy, relays, batt terminal, and have only had a problem once (the seal on my dizzy went bad), so i popped off the cap, dried it out, put it back on, and I was good to go. I clean my engine bay about once every other month (when i detail the rest of my car) so ive done it 6 or so times, and my prievious 2 hondas ive done the same, so all in all, probably 50 times ive cleaned my bay without taping anything, and had 1 problem (which i explained earlier)

Same here, and I am the king of clean engine bays, with the pics to prove it! Also all the autoparts store engine degreasers are crap, and most are hard on paint. I use a product that is safe on paint, and works better than any shelf bought spray! If you want me to I can add a link to the stuff I use! Safe on paint, little or no brush work, gets hoses and everything spotless!

Just because I am a pic whore here ya go!

You need to add that they are very hard to hold onto! Since I just sold my second one tonight! >_<

Yeah congrats!
