Foaming window cleaner, wait until foam starts dissapating, air compressor

I've heard the air hose can force dirt into the bearings, what about using a vacuum cleaner? Is there a reason why I've heard no one uses it?

Dude, you go to a track and check it out. You will see a bunch of air compressors. Most of the guys in trailers have their own and all the tracks I run on provide one.

This is an effective way to quickly clean your ride.

Me personally have never had a issue with using an air compressor..My bearings are fine. Plus I dont care cause I use a dollar bearings. But in 6 years of racing off road, this is the first Ive heard of that.

Ya offroad a stiff bristle brush and a compressor a little denatured alcohol for nitro. Road denatured alcohol and a compressor will do it every time.

Bringing back a old thread but after a really dusty day I wanna clean up my sc10, I was using wet ones (like wet tissues), but wasn't achieving much. I don't wanna use water because of the electronics so I wondered whats the quickest easiest way to get rid of dust and dirt.

Have been using a product called Grease Grizzly for some time now and have preferred it over Simple Green cause I felt it does a better job. Unfortunately, it seems like they're no longer producing it anymore.
Has anyone else tried it before? Any other suitable alternatives for cleaning cars?

Simple Green and Electronic cleaner works well and in between races just a compressor and a dry paint brush works great.

I also like to use the electronics/MAF cleaner you can get at any auto parts store. It is obviously safe to spray on electronics, does a relatively good job of removing dirt/grime and evaporates quickly leaving no nasty residue behind.

I will also use some sort of de-greaser with an assortment of paint & tooth brushes. Rinse with water and dry well with compressed air and a little grease in key parts of the drive train.

Do you guys have your electronics attached with servo tape or are you using velcro so that you can pull them/reinstall quickly before/after cleaning?
