997.2 Cowl and Radiator Cleaning
I recently wrapped my 997.2 and had to remove the bumpers. After removing the front bumper I decided to clean the cowl and radiators. After removing the cowl I realized how important it is to clean it with a full bumper removal every couple of years. I usually vacuum all the leaves out once a year from the front bumper using a flexible extension, but now I realized you really can't get it all that way.
I'll be posting a video on my DIY vinyl wrap as soon as I'm done with it.

very nice work. I think the bumper off radiator cleaning needs to be done once a year. I was shocked by the amount of leaves and cigarette butts that get trapped behind the black plastic cowl that cant be seen with the bumper on.

better take a dramamine before you watch this video, like being drunk on a ship

Rather than vacuuming the radiators I would blow them with a strong air jet. This avoids clogging from debris sitting behind.

I agree. I wasn't planning on doing this when I took the bumper off, otherwise I probably would have taken some soap and water or some coil and fin spray. I used compressed are on it a bit to get as much stuff as I could and the brush seemed to help.
