its not that hard if your engine doesn't leak anything. just clean it really good once and then wipe it down everytime you wash your car. i wash my cars good like once a week though so that helps

One night i just started rubbing the firewall with a rag and some degreaser spray shit. Turned out nice, plus a little paint work didnt hurt. Im still not done mine, lots left to get it how I want it.

I bought my car used, the engine was steamed cleaned. All I use to help keeping it looking nice is engine degreeser and engine detail.
