Extended Product Information
FAQs
Can I use this on a hot engine?
It is recommended to wait until the engine is cool or just slightly warm to prevent the product from evaporating before it can dissolve the grease.
Is this product safe for plastic engine covers?
Yes, it is safe for most standard automotive engine plastics, but always test on a hidden spot first if unsure.
Does it need to be wiped off, or just rinsed?
Rinsing with water is sufficient, though wiping with a dry cloth after rinsing will help prevent water spotting.
Can this be used for cleaning chains?
While it is a powerful degreaser, ensure you re-lubricate any mechanical chains immediately after cleaning as this product removes all existing grease.
Is it safe for electrical sensors?
The product is non-conductive, but avoid spraying directly into exposed electrical connectors or open intake systems.
Troubleshooting
Grease is not lifting off the surface
Apply a second coat and allow the product to sit longer before rinsing; use a brush to agitate stubborn buildup.
White film remains after rinsing
This may be residue from the cleaning process; rinse the area again with clean water and wipe dry with a microfiber cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
No specialized setup is required; the 400ml aerosol is ready to use. Ensure the engine is off and cool to the touch before application. While the product is non-corrosive, always test a small, inconspicuous area if applying to painted surfaces or specialized plastic components. Store the canister in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and avoid storing in temperatures exceeding 50°C. Keep out of reach of children and wear appropriate protective gloves and eyewear during use to prevent skin irritation.
