Procedure:
Some engine de-greaser sprayed where necessary
Left to dwell for 10 - 15 mins
sprinkle of water to wash it off
WD40 buffed with a cloth to give the finished look
Little toothbrush to get into the little nyooks, the long nozzle on the WD40 helps too!
Same procedure today with a different car
It hasn't been done once in almost 5 years of ownership, there was plenty of dirt, pipes came off once or twice covering the engine bay in coolant etc.

Did a full decontamination on the E36 a few weeks ago and been doing it panel by panel when I've had the time with decent weather outside.
I did the roof first:
One side of the car:
It's coming out not too bad with 2 heavy cuts with an orange pad, and a finishing cut with a green pad and finishing polish. Pretty hard paint compared to what I'm used to.
Before:
After:
Did the bonnet last Friday:
Sealed with 845. The car has rough bodywork but I feel like the detail is helping it a decent bit

Gave the old girl a good clean at the weekend,
Iron -x on the wheels and washed off,
Snow foam using BH auto foam,
2 bucket wash using Carpro Hydro2Foam,
Dried using Dry me crazy microfibre towel.
Very happy with the results, even had time to take a few pics of her. (escuse the wipers still up :eek:)

You're spot on, there is a small few into clean cars around but it's mainly dirty lowered vag's that are around down there haha!
I have lasting memories of a tractor down there, think it was regd in 1963. Yoke was like a sieve, there was that many holes in the body
Favourite past time of the owner was holding up tourist buses :pac:
I'll keep an eye out for a spotless e90 when I'm down in the summer 0 -
