Engine bay cleaning - James S - 08-12-2019
What's best thing to use to clean my engine bay up a bit?
And also, is there a colour match for the paint in the engine bay as it is different to the rest of the car!

I dont believe its different to the rest of the car, just not as many layer/laquer/cleaned as much.

As said above it should be the same colour, though if your car has metallic paint they sometimes paint the engine bay a flat colour to save costs....
I used Autoglym engine cleaner, Autosol, black to black on the black plastic trims...wD40 is good for hoses to give a clean look too and Autoglym polish on the paint work as its course helping to get into the grease and grim
