Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

15 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

  • 911uk: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

1 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

Outcome without a verified action link

For the rest of the underside a long handled brush, TFR and a RSI did the trick.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi all Can anyone recommend any products or techniques to help remove the baked on oil/dirt on the underside of my C4? I have used a pressure washer and scrubbing brush with the likes of Gunk, Auto Glym engine cleaner and Meguiars APC, but I am still struggling as the photo will show. Any advice would be greatly appreciated :thumb:

POST 5Original post

I,me sure I have seen on YouTube someone using a jet wash patio cleaner inverted. Never tried it but thought it was a good idea.

POST 6Original post

Isn't that light brown stuff the original colinite that was applied by the factory :?:

POST 7Original post

drive it more and in the rain. wont have to worry then

POST 8Original post

Soda blasting looks good for the ally. I've found TFR and clean brake cleaner + plenty of elbow grease get's the ally clean too. For the rest of the underside a long handled brush, TFR and a RSI did the trick.

POST 9Original post

That light brown stuff looks like the original Porsche coating. No need for that to come off other than for display purposes? Brake cleaner quite effective on oily stuff. I also use Bilt Hamber degreaser stuff (forget the name), followed by some corrosion protection.

POST 10Original post

Bilt Hamber Surfex HD is the best degreaser / all purpose cleaner that I've used.

POST 11 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Could be, I didn't think of that!

POST 13Original post

To remove such dirt, you can try using an ordinary dishwashing detergent. Such products are good at removing oils, so you can try them. If this does not help you, then as an option, you can try expensive detergent analogues. These can be different brands of cleaners. The main thing is that it is stated that it is for cleaning oil stains. If even that option doesn't work for you, then you can use Sparkle Wash Upstate . For me, it's an excellent way to deal with issues I'm not as good at as I'd like to be. Have you had any luck yet?

POST 14Original post

Dry ice cleaning is quite strangely hypnotic. Bit expensive though. https://www.instagram.com/theblastsmith/?hl=en

And with all that CO2 released, it's VERY bad for global warming
