Use some G101 to clean the engine, if your only using a hose to rinse then no real need to cover anything up, just use common sense and dont continually soak the electrics, when its raining water will get through and make the engine wet, the engine electrics are designed to withstand a good deal of water and moisture:thumb:

If you PM SueJ in the Autosmart section she will send you the telephone number for your local AutoSmart Franchise.

OR

You can get AS G101 from Polished Bliss and Elite Car care
Bilt Hamber Surfex HD is also a very good APC

For your engine bay dressing try AG Vinyl and Rubber dressing (from Halfords)AG engine and machine cleaner and to clean the engine or Gunk.

OR

Autosmart Finish for engine bay plastics , plastic inner arches , interior, dilute to suit

All great products :thumb:
