I'm pretty obssesive about mine. Spent about an hour cleaning the engine compartment in the goat using a rag and Simple Green this afternoon. I couldn't stop and detailed the Avalanche engine bay as well.

I like keeping them looking like showroom clean. How clean is yours?

i try to keep it fairly clean. but not quite that clean. that looks good DG

 

[LSX Performance]

Wow! You could eat off of there!

 

[Dbluegoat]

wait i see a spec of dirt......

 

[Stan]

Here is the car, but I won't show you a pic of my truck

I have the same obsession. I see ANY dirt or oil, out comes the portable steam cleaner! :hail:

 

[Mikesan]

It's normally more of an afterthought for me. I might do it a couple times a year. The GTO might get a third cleaning! I finally moved some crap out of the way to fit it in the garage. 4 car garage, and I can barely fit the GTO and wife's MPV. Now prowling the lots to find a cheap daily driver.......One I can park outside and not worry about.

BTW, Very nice. How much work was it to paint the calipers? I want to do the same with mine in IBM.

Looks nice, Just remember that Simple Green has a reaction with aluminum that is corosive, and will spot a piece of aluminum if left on it for any lenght of time

 

[TonyTJ]

Mine is always spotless. Gotto keep it show room quality!

I had chicken ,peas and carrots and Strawberry cheese cake off mine last week :gr_jest: j/k

I do however keep mine as clean as you do yours DG
I do have OCGD (obsessive-compulsive- GTO disorder)

For those interested, Sears does sell a portable steam cleaner for $99. :hail:

Are you talking about the "Steam Shark?" Does it work well?

Actually mine was cleaner last weekend but didnt have time to take pics before the show. Keep in mind that this is meant as constructive but I see either 2 specs of lint (or glare) and you can get the heads blacker.

Cleaning it doesn't make it go faster so I don't bother :gr_jest: I do wipe off any large deposits of dust however.

Actually in the long run it will. If the engine comp is clean then leaks from anything will immediately show up. Granted this sort of cleaning is obsessive but it also serves a dual purpose.

For me, I keep my engine as clean as the rest of the car since I tend to open the hood more than the drivers side door.

That isn't showroom clean. Mine never looked that good even when it was new How about taking a trip east? I'll let you work on mine

 

[PFRgoat]
