Default Cleaning my engine bay...

Ok heres the deal. All the engine bay shots that i see are spotless and without the dirt residue. I tried the castrol engine cleaner on my engine bay and sprayed it off, and the dirt is gone, but there is still a layer of it on. looks like brown water spots. So i took a sponge and gave everything in reach a scrubbing.

now the parts that i scrubbed look fine, but the places that cant be scrubbed (ie. behind the brake lines) are still dirty. Will simple green make everything unreachable look like new?

thanks

I've never had any problems, i had some grease near my tranny and could reach it, then sprayed that bitch down with simple green and let it sit, pressured washed it and it all came off. Try it.
