Under the hood cleaning...
Ok my uncle who is a huge car enthusiast saw my car for the first time yesterday and saw under the good which I have to admit is dirty. Havent had time to clean it. What is the best/easiest/safest way to do this? He said just take some armor all wipes just start doing little at a time. Anyone else?

I am interested in the answer too. Not sure if its a good idea to use armoral on the engine? Too much heat?

I sprayed some engine cleaner on my whole engine and LIGHTLY hosed it off, didn't want to mess anything up.

I know it should all be sealed, but I'm scared to hose it down
