  • Engine Detail on my 99 Grand Am

    Here's some pics of my engine detailing on my own 99 Pontaic Grand Am. First time I've done a engine detailing and to be honest I never knew it could be so easy. The car is 8 years old and I doubt the engine has ever been cleaned before, so there was a pretty decent amount stuff it. My process was pretty simple too.

    Sprayed on APC+ (4:1)
    Sprayed off with regular hose and water
    Sprayed on Super Degreaser (7:1)
    Sprayed off with regular hose and water
    Blew out the engine with my shop vac to get rid of excess water
    Let dry all the way
    Went over the painted surfaces with M66
    Sprayed the engine compartment down with Hyper Dressing (4:1)

    I was really impressed with the process and how simple it was, it took me about an hour total, and the results were great.

    Here are the before and after pics.

          Nice turnout. I'll have to try the M66 on the painted areas in my engine bay.

            Thanks guys,
            Yeah I was amazed with results and how little time it took. I ended up workin' on it a little longer though, because since I had such great results with the engine, i ended up going around and waxing all my door and trunk jams. It really helped them a lot, I was quite surprised. I look forward to being able to add this to my line of detailing now, probably a definite easy upsell if I bring along pictures.

              An hour or two well spent I'd say!

                  Looks great! Hard to beat the look of Hyper Dressing under the hood.
