Here here nice job 😊😊

Maybe, but no one wants to get in that argument.

@@Cheepchipsable then don't be a business owner. No matter how hard you try, you're going to get people that want to pin things on you.

Paddles are at the bottom. And even though, if the paddle is deep it can ruin your car. Under rain? There is a hood that protects the engine lol. And even though the underhood can get wet when it's raining, it doesn't get the shower. So it's okay then. But if gets showered like in this video especially with the hose, it can ruin electrical parts or even the engine. The engine bay and cars are not waterproof. Why flooded cars get ruined? The damage that you think isn't there when you wash the engine bay like this, doesn't show up right away. The same as flooded cars. It takes a few years for it to show up. I'm glad you're not my mechanic.

@@Igryan8 you're comparing a car being completely submerged to getting sprayed by a hose indirectly. I'm glad I'm not your mechanic either.

@@CapitalWorksPro I was comparing it to the video, when he sprayed with the hose "directly" and because you said that it's okay to continue to do so, I commented. The spray is under pressure and can get into parts that water shouldn't go to. But nvm if you meant something else.

Vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvbbbvbv.

Lol so you must not be an electrician

@@murkyturkey5238 most batteries are in enclosed compartments so there's bo possible way to get it wet. If you have a exposed battery you should probably disconnect it

Pressure washer is an unnecessary risk. On a brand new car less concern but on anything 5 years or older, electric connectors can easily be damaged. Takes just a little more effort to use a brush. I used to use press washer until I had a mishap. Can be as careful as you want, pressure washer is not a very precise tool

@@donkeydiehard879 this is complete nonsense…anything 10-15 years old just needs the alternator covered with a plastic bag and get to pressure washing (keeping nozzle a safe distance away). Try watching multiple top YTers who detail and they all say the same thing. Don’t be afraid young grasshopper

Another awesome bottle I’ve came across are those from Shine Supply

Zep pro sprayer is the way to go!

Are you going to have a picnic under there lol. I always find these videos funny, you don't clean under the hood, it's a way for shops to make extra money. They will tell you everything runs cooler, but it's a line of BS. I'm still driving the same 2002 Mazda Protege that I drove of the lot, never once is this needed. I actually asked my mechanic about it once that has over 50 years of experience, and he asked me a simple question. He asked me, guess what keeps all those nice rubber components under your hood in such great shape and why they almost never crack and dry out? I said I gave up, and he said grease lol. Leave the shit alone.

No shit why clean on a running car 🤦‍♂️

@@Bojonni It’s not about whether it’s running or not smartass. It’s if the engine is warm or not.🤦‍♂️

@cow Well the engine can still be pretty hot several hours after the car was turned off... learned that the hard way myself

Don't just include it, this is perfect upsell material

Do it for 50$ lol seperate

Nah dude do it for 50$ but separate

I see it. 😂 What a stoner.

thought i was the only one to catch that

careful with the physical brushing, not so much the spraying

The old expression is "Common sense is not so common". Everyone has a different perception of what is common, therefore there is no such thing as common sense. Was it common in the past and now it's no longer common? Come on bro. This is really good weed that I'm smoking 🤩

@@automotivefinishexperts2152 You're not even conversing with Luke here... You're replying to a guy on Luke's video. I think what gives is you don't know exactly what the fuck you're doing online.

Common sense is like deodorant not everyone uses it.

drying cat in microwave, murica.

@@Unknown-jl7mg I LIKE "if sense were common everyone would have it"

I agree but when i had a honda and brought it in for work they would spray the entire engine compartment down with an oil spray

He is saying you don't need to cover electrical components.

I use heavy duty tinfoil to be safe, it takes less than a minute to wrap up electronics.

Eric Hradek ChrisFix has a good video on cleaning an engine bay, should help...

Just don't get water on the alternator or distributor. Cover them with a Walmart bag if you're concerned about them getting too wet

😅

What about the batt?

Only thing you should be careful about is so soaking down by the spark plug wells and those spots don’t normally see water

What this guy did is fine, it's spraying it hard from the top with a hose that isn't to smart, that's a lot different than rain splashing up from the bottom.

@@DevJB disconnect battery and dry engine bay with a little bit of compressed air make sure all sensors are dry and don't get water in the intake and it will all be fine

🤣

JWL I agree. Seasonal engine bay cleaning. I start with compressed air to blow stuff out. Also, my father in law taught me the benefits of waxing the under side of the hood. Back in 2007 when wax was still a thing, he popped the hood on his 2001 Maxima. It was amazing what seasonal app of wax will do to preserve paint.

No water to spray down?

@@Phuong_Nguyen_ nope, I never needed to use water to clean the engine bay. I still follow the same process just moved to a Ph neutral APC last year for peace of mind.

@@JWL-UK so you just wet the cloths and wipe everything down and no rinse?

@@Phuong_Nguyen_ I blow the dust away with the help of a brush and leaf blower, use a foam pump to apply the APC, agitate where needed and wipe everything down with multiple damp microfibre towels. Dry with the blower if needed, apply dressing and BSD on exposed metal parts/painted areas and voilà!

I like CG silk shine already in liquid form and can be used inside and out and if you want to dilute a bit more for the engine that works. I like the dark black, but mild gloss look silk shine provides.

Eddie Garcia yeah I use silk shine on all my rubbers and plastic with the exception of the tires. I use V07 hybrid for that

Bingo lol

Simple, very Simple. Last time I did that the car started missing and the rpm started to go up and down. Had to run the car for about 45 mins. Simple is wishful thinking. 🧐

Okay Boomer

Honestly you can soak your entire engine bay with no issue what do you think happens going 50 in the rain with the rain blasting through your radiator

@@mercury0214 no you can not. If you know anything about the automotive field you would know that rain through the radiator is reduced drastically. That is also why most of the electronics are not mounted in front of the engine. Soaking an engine bay is a completely different level. It doesn't matter if you have sprayed an engine bay 100 times and never had an issue. It only takes one time for a electrical box to not be sealed correctly or an electrical component to get wet and you can cause thousands of dollars in damage. The engine bay is sealed for a reason. Alot more electronics are mounted in the engine bay of today's cars. Read any owners manual and it will also tell you not to do so. It's very simple either wash it by hand or wrap all major electrical components before and be mindful of how much your spraying in the engine bay. It's not the engine you are worried about. The engine is sealed very well. It's everything else that you need to be worried about. Like the spark plugs, fuse boxes, computers, alternator, getting chemicals on the belts and many other things. You don't wash your house electronics by throwing them in the shower. Same thing with the car. It's still electronics and other sensitive components of a car. Common sense tells you electrical components and water/chemicals don't mix. Common sense is to be mindful of all these items when spraying the engine bay. I'm not saying you can't soak the engine bay just not everything in the engine bay.

@@mercury0214 did you read? also radiators are fans bruh LOL, theyre in the front for a reason

@hammerhand5059 I completely understand what you mean and agree except with alot of automotive components still have voltage running to them with the vehicle off unlike the parts you are washing that have no power. But still I think you are right as well in most cases the electronics are coated and protected pretty well and shouldn't have to worry about the water unless it puddles up somewhere. Shoot its crazy bc I have seen cars go almost completely underwater and still be fine. But it's just that one time that something makes contact and causes alot of damage.
