Detailing 997.2 Engine

Plan to clean and detail this weekend after winter driving. First time for me so bit nervous, checking procedure. Just light dirt after 3500 miles. Got this list from Moe post in 08 want to be sure still best approach.

1. run engine 5 mins.
2. cover air intake
3. rinse with light flat water spray
4. spray with P21S Total Auto Wash All Purpose Degreaser
5. use boars hair brush where required
6. rinse
7. blow dry
8. uncover air intake and run engine 5 mins
9. dress if desired

Don't have CR spotless so after rinse may spray distilled water before drying to keep spotting to minimum.

Thanks

Not speaking for Moe, but that looks 100% correct. I love the P21S Total Auto Wash for engine bay cleaning.
