Engine Detailing - Insulation blanket on interior hood

The hood of my car has a thick insulation blanket attached to it on the inside. What do people do with that when you're detailing an engine bay? Do you clean it somehow? Do you leave it alone and just clean the little bit of the interior hood that's exposed?



Thanks!
 
Any good APC with a pressure washer should go a long way to cleaning things up. Maybe agitate with a soft-medium bristle brush if necessary. Any exposed painted surfaces get treated the same as the rest of the paint.

I would be REALLY careful you did'nt damage your hood sound proofing,I would test a small area first,I probably would just use a low pressure hose, APC and a soft brush,if all else fails I've resprayed hood insulation black before with a rattle can.
 
I take mine off and lay it on the ground. Spray it down with some good APC, let it soak, then spray it out really good and let it dry.



I would NOT use a pressure washer or brush of any kinda. They are kinda delicate so be careful when trying to pick it up when its soaked with water too.
