Hey Guys,

Getting ready to pressure wash the V8 engine and transaxle. I have some Castrol Super Clean to use to get the dirt off along with a wire brush.

Will the Super Clean hurt the finish of the transaxle?

This is a used engine, not fresh bare rebuilt engine. So it has the factory engine paint, etc.

Once I get it clean, do I:

Need to scuff up the engine with sandpaper?

Do I need primer before paint?

Thanks,

Steve
