View Full Version : Cleaning a Hybrid Engine Bay

I have a 2020 Lexus Hybrid and the engine bay is very lightly dirty, mostly dusty, and I am scared to death to do anything to it

I did a search using hybrid but no joy

Obviously hybrid cars get water splashed up in the "engine bay" but still, I am leery of even using normal "spray APC, agitate, rinse, spray protectant, mop up" methods

Can somebody with experience in this situation give me some specifics on do's and don'ts or tell me I am just being paranoid?

Thanks

Blow it off first and then use a waterless wash. Dampen a mf towel for initial wipe and final wipe with a dry mf. Use a plastic protectant of your choice.

Sounds like a plan
