it was pretty cheap 40$ for the engine
some retired guy is doing that as a hobby in front of his house
he has all the equipment to do a perfect detailing job
he really took his time...about 3 hours or so
i didnt expect to get it that clean either
Got it done in montreal... u guys could drive all the way here

It tends to get pretty hard during the cold winter. Just washing it sucks already nevermind detailing or ever trying to detail the engine.

Nobody know their own situation better than them self’s. I was just saying that for people that might think it is difficult to clean their own engine, because there were lots of people asking where you got it done.

I'm just saying that you don't need a professional do the job all you need is time.

he put 3 layers of some clear coat product
so it will keep most of the plastic part shiny
i guess he had to wait between each wash and coating
but i mean this guys really took his time to do a clean job

Does your neighbor do this as a business or he only does it for family and friends?

My engine bay is cleaner than the outside of my car!

if you got an aftermarket intake, please wash the engine bay every so often! it's for the sake of the car and yourself.
