Got the underside of the van cleaned and waxoyled a few weeks back. Open the engine lid for the first time today and they have blasted it all over the engine bay.
At least it won't rust.
Obviously this is gonna be an afternoons cleaning fun - joy - but I wondered what the best way was? Just a heavy duty engine degreaser?
Thanks peeps.

Re: waxoyl removal
Yeah, and I'd go blind so wouldn't know where I was cleaning.
