PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Introduction
Proper cleaning of engine compartments can be very difficult since they have various areas that are difficult to reach. These compartments may accumulate oil leaks, grease deposits, dust, and road contaminants which can be turned into stubborn grime layers by the heat from the engine. However, with the SONAX Engine and Cold Cleaner, you can rapidly remove oil and grease from engines and even other mechanical components. It is designed to dissolve greasy soiling quickly and reliably during application without causing any form of damage to the engine.What the Product Does
The SONAX Engine and Cold Cleaner serve as an advanced, high-penetration cleaning product. It helps in the removal of oil and grease contaminations from hard-to-reach areas within the engine bay through chemical breakdown. Thanks to its chemical formulation, it can dissolve hydrocarbon-based residues that adhere to engine components, helping to loosen them so they can be rinsed away with water. It is a solvent-free and phosphate-free product, which makes it material compatible and environmentally safe. It is designed with high creep capability that makes it possible for the product to sink into parts that are hard to reach to dissolve contaminants that have accumulated over time. It is an effective cleaning agent for engine blocks, power units, machine parts, and tools.Features Vs Benefits
Features
- High Penetration (Creep) Capability: Its advanced creeping capacity makes it easy to reach tight or hidden areas.
- Solvent-Free and Phosphate-Free Composition: It is made from environmentally safe and material-friendly chemicals. It does not contain harmful substances like solvents and phosphates.
- Water-Rinse Cleaning System: It is designed to dissolve and break down contaminants effectively so that you only need to rinse off with high-pressure water to completely remove the contaminants.
- Spray Application Format: It comes in a trigger spray container. This makes it easy to evenly distribute across surfaces and get to tight, narrow spots.
Benefits
- Fast-Acting Degreasing Formula: It is formulated to dissolve stubborn contaminants effectively and quickly. Even oil and grease that have solidified over time due to heat from the engine can be dissolved in a short dwell time.
- Improved Engine Bay Visibility: It is intended to provide a clean and clear engine surface free from contaminants. A clean surface makes it easy for routine inspection of engine components like hoses, seals, and other key parts.
- Access to Hard-to-Reach Areas: It reduces the stress that comes with the disassembly of engine parts just to clean tight or narrow gaps. You can now spray into those narrow parts, wait for contaminants to dissolve, and rinse off with clean water.
- Reduced Cleaning Time: It breaks down contaminants through its quick chemical action. Saves you the time spent in scrubbing and trying to reach into narrow or hidden parts of the engine.
How to Use
- Step 1: Ensure the engine is cool and not running. Do not apply to any hot surface. And remove all loose dirt and debris.
- Step 3: Spray the SONAX Engine Cleaner and Cool evenly over the contaminated areas. Ensure you cover the whole surface area and into tight and narrow parts of the engine.
- Step 4: Let the product dwell for about 3-5 minutes. This will help it dissolve stubborn dirt like accumulated oil and grease. Do not let it dry completely on the surface.
- Step 5: Rinse off using a strong water jet. This makes it easy to wash away all forms of dissolved contaminants from the surface and also in tight or narrow parts.
- Step 6: Air-dry the car with the engine bay opened to ensure all components dry properly. You can also dry using compressed air. This helps to remove any form of moisture.

FAQ
After applying the product, scrub the affected areas before rinsing with high-pressure water. Also, the dwell time is critical, as you must not allow the product to dry before applying high-pressure water.
You mustn't apply a hot surfactant to an engine that is working. Also, once you apply to a surface, leave for about 3-5 mins to help dissolve dirt and rinse off with water.
This helps rinse out dirt that is in tight or narrow areas. Also, the pressure from the water helps scrub off stubborn dirt that may not have been fully dissolved.
