Engine Bay Detailing Process

Cleaning your engine bay is not something you need to be doing monthly or biweekly like our Mini Detail service but is definitely a great treat for the complete look!

  • After popping the hood, we will inspect the engine and cover any sensitive areas such as your alternator or air intakes. Please feel free to let us know if another area concerns you getting wet.

  • We’re not spraying up close like we would your wheels- we like to spray the vehicle a couple of feet away so the water isn't so pressurized and forced. This is to get the heavy dirt, grime, leaves sprayed off.

  • After the initial pre rinse, we will use a variety of brushes and an all purpose cleaner to scrub and agitate the debris off.

  • We rinse the engine down and dry it with an air blower.

  • Once the engine is dry we will use a steam cleaner to detail and touch up any remaining dirt on the engine bay.

  • Once the engine looks clean we will use a water based dressing to condition the plastics and a spray wax for the painted portions to give you that freshly detailed look!

Benefits of an Engine Bay Detail

  1. A lot of people choose to ignore their engine bay simply because it's not visible and covered. However, when going to work on their vehicle or check if everything is well, this results in getting the hands all oily and black. This service will help maintenance routines be easier and cleaner.

  2. Having a clean engine bay will make your car look 10x better when presenting it for sale or trade in. It will give the idea that you took great care of the vehicle and will make a better selling point. It will also allow the potential buyer to detect any leaks within.

  3. Detailing your engine bay in some cases can actually help your engine run a tad cooler due to all of the accumulation of dirt, grime, dust from sitting on top of your engine it will allow for more air to travel throughout.

    Engine Bay Detail Pricing and Scheduling

    An engine bay detail is $50 and must be accompanied by another service such as a Mini Detail if you'd like a mobile service.

    Scheduling is super easy! Simply give us a call, text or email to discuss availability and we will get it done. This service takes roughly 45 minutes to complete but can take a bit longer if the engine bay is very dirty. Pricing may always vary based on condition.

    We are completely mobile to be able to get the job done at your home, office or job to come out to a fresh, OEM looking engine bay!

    Please note: this service is intended to clean and detail the surface level of the engine. We won't be going super deep inside into the engine to keep it safe. This will greatly improve the aesthetic look of your engine bay while making sure everything is done safely.

FAQs

Will my engine look perfect?

If your vehicle is newer, you can expect it to look just as good as it did off the lot! If you’ve never cleaned or detailed your engine it will look 10x better by the time we are done! We don't try to get every gear perfect, simply make the surface look a lot better than what you’re used to =)

Can this damage my engine?

If you are not cautious and just start blasting water to the engine bay you could cause some issues.

However, this is why we inspect the engine, cover any sensitive areas and limit the water we use. Oversaturating the engine is not necessary, we use just enough to push the dirt off and touch up any sensitive areas with steam. Much safer process.
