First Engine Bay Detail In 33 Years! Disaster BMW E30 Detail!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 ก.พ. 2020
- 33 years of absolute filth built up on this 1987 BMW 325i(E30). I'll start first by saying that dirt that has been sitting for 6 months hits a lot different than dirt that is older than you. This engine bay detail was no easy task and it took hours and hours of picking away at small areas multiple times. We put together this video in hopes of compressing the process into something that satisfies your eyes, and maybe ears.
We took it a step further this time and actually refinished the infamous M20 valve cover to breath a little extra life into the engine bay. We hope you enjoy the process!
Thank you all for watching, appreciate every single one of you!

In older bmws, if you ain't leaking oil you better check your dipstick because you ain't got oil
Danny Garcia haha big big facts
Spot on
For 33 years of e30, without any rust or oil leak, is something...
hendra kartawidjaja I agree! It’s really low mileage, body needs some body work. Will be happening in the spring!
Chromatic Auto Detailing can’t wait for it 🤗😇
They built them well back then! My 1990 has held up well. Almost 400,000 km. No rust, just a very minor oil leak and some chipped clear coat. My engine bay is as dirty as this one though, so this is inspiring for me!!
So relaxed with my coffee and this video on an early Tuesday morning 💗
MyNicknash sounds perfect! Enjoy the rest of your day!😊
1:54, the moment he brushed over that 30 year old sticker and the orange colour pops. So satisfying!
Calvin Lim love it! Thanks for watching
Back when cars had souls..! Amazing work to say the least.
D M hah seriously! Thanks!
Long time BMW tech here.. That engine looks better than when the E30 was new. They would come off the cargo ships covered in protectant. Real pain to get that stuff off.
Blimey I feel so relaxed having watched that. Your work was superb, the valve cover especially. Thanks for sharing! Subscribed!
Satisfaction on a whole new level!!!
Always going to be a good day when Chromatic uploads an amazing video!
Jay Kuykendall thank you Jay! Likewise for me if you’re watching it! Hope you enjoy!
The level of detail he did was awesome. Made my day!
VQ_Family Toronto thank you my friend! Have a blessed weekend!
damm dude! this is on another level! straight fire!
SET Auto Care thanks buddy! Need to break the 30 minute mark soon haha
Always so freaking amazing !! 🔥🔥 patience is key!
El Detalle Autocare thank you my friend! Patience always wins!!
Perfect.A hug from Brazil!
That was so thorough! Really enjoy these videos. Side note - those Nike’s are 🔥
William Atmur thanks man! Haha they’re actually vintage Bruins from the same year this car was made. A little easter egg for the shoe enthusiast in all of us
Amazing job guys! i relaxing with coffee and your video's! 👍👍
Thanks for subscribing bro! Hope you enjoy the videos to come
This is the most detailed engine detail I've ever seen.
You make awesome videos! Keep up the good work! Greetings from Finland 🤘🏻
Eetu Nikkilä thank you Eetu! I’ll try my best! Have an awesome weekend!
I finally found a video that sum up my Sunday afternoon.
Abdul Hakim haha heck yeah! Hope you had fun Abdul! Thanks for watching
Love from India. Excellent detailing work and the ASMR feeling on point.
ANURAG KHAUND thank you very much Anurag!
New subscriber here! Love the videos! Nicely shot and with the raw sounds of tools!
Awesome, thank you very much!
good work! 💪🏼Love this BMW! 💙🔝
Thanks Marco!
I subscribed yesterday, you are very different from other detailing channels. Appriciate your dedication & commitment towards your passion.
I feel happy to have found your channel. You do amazing work. The only thing I would do differently here is that I would probably polish the fuse cap a bit with some plastics polisher. The haziness and yellow effect make it look dirty in comparison to the rest of the engine.
this is so satisfying
Deni Abdurrachman glad you’re enjoyed it Deni!
Chromatic, that's gotta be one of the most stylishly composed and shot detailing vids I've seen in a while - great work & cheers !
A Trimmer thank you! Exactly what we’re trying to improve at
Cool ! Subbed - greetings from Australia :-D
Hi!
Awesome video!
Am planning to get a Dupray one plus steamer for my new mobile car detailing.
Can you tell is it good?
And can I use for exterior body cleaning also, if I face water scarcity?
Lovely! nice work!
Danial Daneshmand thanks Danial! Have an awesome weekend!
Once again you did an amazing job!
luis ocampo as long as you’re watching imma try my best! Thanks bro!
Love your new style of editing👍
nigel london thank you Nigel! Always looking to get better
nice work, what product do you spray before brushing?
Excellent touch on the valve covers!
Alex915 thanks Alex! Going to do the intake manifold next. Should look pretty sharp!👌
I’m honestly impressed your shoes stayed clean lol. Great job
You do incredible work!
Matt Weddle thanks Matt! You the best
The bmw E30 the all time icon of bmw in my opinion love the car so much keep up the grind your doing good👌🙌🙂
DIVTY-INFINITY MOBILE thank you my friend! Couldn’t agree more! Hoping to keep this one safe!
What would u like tonne your next detail car?
Very nice detailing. I have some experience with painting valve covers with wrinkle paint. In order to make the painted finish last it’s strongly recommended to sand blast it 🙂👍🏻 The paint you used is good because no primer needed 👌🏻
INTENZO RC ACTION thank you my friend! I’ll keep that in mind for the intake manifold!
33 years and this is ALL the dirt?!?! Muahahaa.
Come to Europe, we'll show you what 33 years really do.
Haha I would love to!
great vid
Burak Keles thanks Burak! You’re the man
Good job 👌
Flogers Kumaraku thanks Flogers!
I recently bought an E30and I don’t think the engine bay had ever been derailed had to do the same but I don’t regret any bit of it love the car
Kyle Strassburger congrats Kyle! You’re going to love it, so damn fun to work on and drive
Chromatic Auto Detailing for sure I’m excited as I bought it as a small project hoping I can get it painted by June still saving lmao
Perfect tutorial!
ambitionsskyyyy thank you!🤝
I was like no dont paint it black it doesnt suit. But then you sanded the logo out and i was like man that is nice.... Subscribed
TelaKalle oy haha I had the same feeling after I saw it all black. Thank you!
What grit paper did you use on the valve cover??
Good stuff, what camera do you use ?
That is one of South Africa's favourite cars ...legendary e30🇿🇦😍🔥🔥
Corbin James heck yeah! An icon. Thanks for watching!
I love ur channel bc of the e30 vids. I drive an e28 and i wish i was as good of a detail as u. I just recently did an engine bay clean on my car but it was nowhere as in depth as this
H D thank you! I would love an e28! I’m sure it still looked great. This was super necessary to start doing an overhaul in the engine bay. I want this thing to run like we’re in 1987!
Nice
Keep it up!
Jot Johal thank you! Will do!🤝
What kind of metal brushes did you use? Looks perfect for metal areas
legit 🔥👌
ps: please don't use music its way better without it
just me thank you! Even leave it out in the intro?!
@@ChromaticGarage absolutely its intro
@@ChromaticGarage my dude next video just have it be music
Study in politics class? Nah, Chromatic Auto Detailing time
Caleb Schmidt haha heck yeah!
Yes!! The E30 is Back!!! Great Video bro, i hope we get to see more soon!
Peter Piper absolutely! Love this car man! Thanks for watching!
HOLD UP. Where's all the "OMG COVER THIS AND COVER THAT" people?! C.A.D...you just won the automotive internets!!! xD Great video man!!!!
This is hilarious haha. I hadn't even realized. The peanut gallery usually goes in on engine bay videos haha
Well when you’re spraying individual pieces with a spray bottle and not pressure washing the entire engine bay, it doesn’t really matter
@@DowntimeMedia Oh absolutely. That's a play on the folks who always cry about washing engine bays haha.
I've seen five-year-old cars with more dirt and dust. Heck, my 20-year-old (which I've just started working on) is a lot filthier and worn. You should be so lucky :D
satisfied 👌
Haha my job is complete!👌
Great video my friend👍🏼👍🏼
Ralda’s Details thank you Tony! How has your winter season been? Staying warm?!
All good bro I live in South Carolina so here is no bad today we are on the 60s what about you?
Ralda’s Details that’s awesome man! Not so good here haha. -15 most days, but it’s almost March so it’s fine! We’ll make it
Wow bro!! Stay warm take✌️ can’t wait to see your next video👍🏼👍🏼
Damn that cover came out niiiice, only thing I would’ve done differently is take off that plastic over the fuses and polish it back clear, but god damn you do some clean work 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
you best!
Thanks Talha!
Awesome video. Maybe try increasing the angle at which you film the engine so that your arm doesn't block what you are trying to show, might be a bit difficult though given the way the bonnet opens. Keep up the great content.
Really sweet job there sir what make steam cleaner you using
Andrew Linnane thanks Andrew! It’s the Dupray One
Cool
Thanks Lukas!!
Dude that’s epic and great to see how much care you take with your e30! I’ll be doing the same to mine with the engine bay 😎🚗
Thank you Kaz! Get it done brother!
Son you had it easy!!!
Normaly you have to clean off all kinds of residue from caked on sealants, anti rust and body protection spray!
This E30 has seen little rain and has just a lot of dirt and road grime
I just did an old engine bay so this looks familiar! Ahha
Haha awesome! Hopefully you didn't completely ruin the car and render it useless
Valvetrain cover looks great!
Layton Ondrias thanks Layton! Hyped on it!
10:07 me throughout this video
Hahaha amazing
Hello, congratulations for your videos, I have a request from you, can you show the products you use to the camera?
Thank you my friend! Its just a Canon T6i
What kind of cleaning products would you recommend for a normal engine bay cleaning? I have a 2013 Dodge charger R/T that i want to show some love
Brett E a mild degreaser and soft bristle brush works great! You can use a hose just use minimal water
What camera do you use? Incredible cinematography !
Mega Tango just a lil canon t6i. I like it!
@@ChromaticGarage what lens are you using?
You should see my 1982 BMW E21 at home hahaha this is not bad
Haha I don't wannaaaaa see that!
Around 9:25 I was half expecting a smoke alarm to go off in the shop 😅
Tim Berghoff haha I have that same thought most days
I am really curious as to why you left the wind shield washer container, the AFM, and other stuff in the engine bay to clean them. There is a lot of stuff there that takes two screws to pop out and would make for an easier deep clean.
Fawkz Fawkz honestly I am also curious. Sometimes I start filming a video and skipping over things that would be way easier
Un fenómeno linpiando
Thank you buddy!
I noticed on the first shot of cleaning the plastics you ended up steaming first before using the degreaser. Was that to help loosen up the caked in oil for the degreaser or just what you ended up doing at that point? Lol
Legit! And the intro music 👌. Whats the name of the song though?
Besart Maksuti thank you! Honestly I have no idea, it’s just a royalty free song from epidemicsound. Very hard to find them on the open web!
This video earned you a sub. Nice work!
Darth Volvo thank you very much!
Cool👍 без лишних слов и все понятно
Сэм Сержанов thank you!
So, it was upside washing only, what about down, front and rear side?
I guess I had forgot haha
What about the lower portion of the engine bay where it really is dirty?
What brand steamer did you use?
Its the Dupray One!
Looks like all that dirt and decrease protected really well that paint during this 30 years
E34s & E30s for life.
callmedwalls yessir! Considering an E36 to daily this summer
The plastic splash guard probably got taken off years ago. You'd be surprised how much that thing helps keep the bay clean.
Nice video ! Try the Alta Foam 2000, you will never use your Ik again ;)
Mr Guillaa haha okay I’ll give it a try, thanks man!
How do you clean your microfiber towels?
SDMotors haha all of these went in the garbage. Typically will use Gyeon towel wash for normal towels
So weird how you can drench cars in water and they’re fine but anything else electronic... good luck. Awesome vid
Haha seriously. Cars are wild
Your videos are so dope!!! 👍🏾
Cheala Neves thank you Cheala! Much respect👌
Chromatic Auto Detailing I enjoy the way you produce your videos, the instrumental music, and those colorful sneakers. It’s the little things...🤗
Is this steam cleaner available in india if so please send link .
I am not sure! I dont have a link
What's really bothering me is when you use the steel wire brush. I suggest using a plastic brush is much safer (not scratching) and cleaner because it's more flexible than steel wire brush.
Young Boy it was necessary. Usually i would agree but it’s hard to translate just how stubborn something is into a video
Great work on that E30 man! What's the name of the song at the end tho?👌🏻
王來順 thanks buddy! Honestly I don’t have a clue, they’re all from a free use website, sorry bout that!
@@ChromaticGarage dangg ayt thanks man!!
Sudah pasti baret halus ketika berbahan palstik disikat dengan sikat kawat haha🤣
Valves cover 👌👍
Jiří Šťastný thanks buddy!
Može to i bolje. Za ulje je najbolji običan sudomil za posuđe. Zaboravio si da staviš silikonski sprej da ga napraviš sjajnim i čistim.
Đorđe M yes!
Wait.. you don't just spray degreaser on the engine and spray it off and then coat it in armor all like all the new car dealerships do? from my experience your doing it wrong bc new car dealers use old mitts and 3 week old soap buckets full of dirt and grime lol. kidding of course i love the detail and I'm glad someone else out there likes to put in the time to make it look good. Nice work!
Shaun M hahaha so true. Thanks Shaun, have an awesome weekend!
Can you do detailing kit for a broke boy like whats the basics i need
How long would something like this take to complete?
I am not too sure! Probably about 6 hours with the painting
Chromatic Auto Detailing that’s is amazing!
Imma need y’all to work on my 2j swapped e30
Would be a pleasure!!
Relaxing isn't it?
Dr.Sánchez RepairMan the most!
👍🏻
If this is the dirtiest engine bay you've ever seen, you've never been to the rust belt!
Haha I believe we are in the rust belt but we mostly deal with new vehicles. I am sure things get terrible!
@@ChromaticGarage yeah. My own personal e30 was dirtier!
Steam good idea 👌
Sean Needham worked really really well! And not a huge amount of water sitting anywhere🙌
