You can get it cheaper, but not much in it by the time you add on postage;

What's the mix to water?

Depends on what you’re using it for as it’s an APC - all purpose cleaner.
For an engine bay, off the top off my head, somewhere between 1/20 & 1/10 - really depends on how much oil and grime has accumulated. Yours really wasn’t that bad, so I’d start out with 1/20 and see how you go.
Spray on with a trigger bottle, leave a few minutes, agitate with a detailing brush or something like a modestly firm paintbrush and wipe away the residue with microfibres. Once everything is dry use some of the stuff Ian was talking about on the plastics and hoses

Would this do the job? Ive already got the vinyl and rubber cleaner in the garage
It says hose off though

The engine and machine cleaner is a great product, it’s just really expensive for the quantity you get. The other product is also good. So, yes, they will do the job
I’d suggest a hose with a ‘rain fall’ type option would be ok for rinsing if you’re careful, personally wouldn’t use a pressure washer under the bonnet… but many do.
Having now discovered how to retrieve footage from my dash cams I can confirm that, yes, the rear camera does record with roof up (and down).
I’ve also got some nice footage of 5 zeds flying in formation from junction 18, but won’t post as the read out confirms velocity
