i recently bought a dio-degradable degreaser sold in midvalley () I dilute with water approximately 25ml to 2liters. Cover intakes, alternator and spray. I let it sit for 10-15 minutes then wash off. if theres stubborn grime then i use my trusty steamcleaner first before i rinse down.

i like carnauba autospa coz they do not spray water into the engine bay but rather use towels with their degreaser.

Hi again friends :itsme:

I'd like to have your views on the above vs wetsanding.

As up till now, i've only wetsanded to remove orange peel. not used any velvet pad.
Not available here as are most detailing products.

plz refer to my previous post ( the caveman's part 2)


My concern is not this car though. the car is sold now.
