    My ancient mini van engine bay

    So today my dad was checking the fluids on the mini. I finally got my self to do the engine after a long time of setting it aside. The mini van has been driven to different states including Mexico. It's poorly maintained inside and out.
    I've didn't want to use the hose to clean it instead I went with Black fire waterless and trim


    Before

    After the cleaning

    Top it off with Blackfire trim dressing


    My dad was impress on how it look and so was I
    😊
    One last thing doing a car like this was a pain in small spaces. Also I had some small Boo boo (cuts) because of how everything was and the places I had to clean 😀

    Spray, agitate with detail brushes, rinse, dry, dress, wear gloves that will help with the boo boo's.

    Just cover up the alternator and stay away from fuse boxes with direct water pressure. You will be fine.

    Looks nice.

    Thanks Jeremy.
    I mainly use the speed masters Jr and detail brushes with the small places and some on the metal. 😀
