The Grime Fighter: Why You Need a Professional Degreaser
We’ve all been there. You pop the hood to show off your engine, or you bend down to inspect your wheels, and you see it: layers of caked-on oil, road tar, and mystery sludge that looks like it’s been there since the 90s.
You grab a standard all-purpose cleaner and a rag. You scrub. You sweat. You scrub some more. And what happens? You just smear the grease around, creating a bigger, oilier mess.
Car detailing isn’t just about making the paint shine; it’s about deep cleaning the components that do the hard work. For that, you don’t need a cleaner—you need a beast.
Why Standard Cleaners Fail on Engines and Wheels
Household cleaners and generic auto sprays are designed for light dust and surface dirt. They lack the chemical backbone to break down petroleum-based bonds.
When oil, grease, and brake dust bake onto your engine or wheels due to heat, they form a hardened shell that resists water. To clean this, you need a high-alkaline formula that chemically attacks the grease at a molecular level, emulsifying it so it can be rinsed away with ease.
Enter the Heavyweight: Street Legal’s Blue Beast Xtreme Degreaser™
At Street Legal, we know that "clean" shouldn't require three hours of scrubbing with a toothbrush. We built Blue Beast Xtreme Degreaser for the toughest jobs that other cleaners are too scared to touch.
Why Ours is Better Than the Competition
The market is flooded with weak, watered-down cleaners. Here is why professionals choose Blue Beast:
1. Industrial Strength Concentrate
Most store-bought degreasers are 90% water. Blue Beast is a premium concentrate. We recommend a 5:1 dilution ratio, which means one gallon of Blue Beast makes six gallons of cleaning power. You get professional strength at a fraction of the cost per use.
2. Versatility Like No Other
While it reigns supreme in the engine bay, Blue Beast is a multi-tool for grime. It is perfect for:
-
Engines: Melts oil leaks and heavy buildup.
-
Wheels & Tires: Strips old tire shine and stubborn brake dust.
-
Tools & Equipment: Restores your wrench set or industrial machinery to looking brand new.
-
Concrete: Lifts oil stains from your driveway or garage floor.
3. Tough on Grime, Safe for the Planet
Power usually comes with a price, but not here. Blue Beast is biodegradable and non-flammable. We use advanced chemistry to give you a solvent-free heavy hitter that tears through tar and soot without harming the environment.
4. The "No-Residue" Finish
Cheap degreasers often leave behind a white, chalky film or an oily residue that attracts more dirt. Blue Beast is formulated to rinse clean, leaving a streak-free surface that is ready for dressing or coating.
How to Tame the Beast (Usage Guide)
Because this is a professional-grade product, it demands respect. Follow these steps for the ultimate clean:
-
Dilute Correctly: Mix 5 parts water to 1 part Blue Beast in a spray bottle. (Stronger mixes can be used for extreme industrial messes, but 5:1 is the sweet spot for automotive use).
-
Cool Down: Never spray degreaser on a hot engine or hot wheels. Let the surface cool to the touch.
-
Spray & Soak: Apply generously to the greasy area. Let it sit for 30–60 seconds. Watch as the formula begins to break down the sludge. Do not let it dry on the surface.
-
Agitate (If Needed): For caked-on grime, use a stiff brush to loosen the debris.
-
Rinse: Blast it away with water. The grease will flow off, revealing the clean surface underneath.
