Hi folks,

I've been giving the car a good clean and started under the bonet. I'm looking looking to clean the plastic engine cover up a bit. Its a bit oily and greasy. Any suggestions/tips on the best method and products to use?

A good of the shelf solution is Autoglyms engine and machine cleaner, spray it on, agitate with a brush and wash off  :happy2:

....Do you know how that solution reacts when sprayed on carbonfibre?

Otherwise Back-to-Black is a good solution for black plastic and rubber parts.

TBH i have never tried it on CF, its quite mild so if washed off quick it should be OK, i would probably just use good old car shampoo on the Carbon myself just to be sure
