Castrol SuperClean is a great engine degreaser and cleans up rubber hoses and tires like new.

be careful with superclean around paint. I've had it dull paint before. I like oileater from costco.

since I was nice before, now I'll say it.

WHY do you care what your hoses look like?? It's a wheeling rig. It's not meant for the show and shine.

Inside the hose or the outside? Just curious, if the inside is what you mean just remove the hose and spray the inside with superclean then wad up some towels and shove them through. JOE>

P.s. oh, yea, and make sure to use something that will not stab a hole in the said hose.

I spray simple green on my whole engine compartment, let is sit for about 3 minutes then hit it with the hose.

x2. That or greased lightning, which ever I grab first.

Both are also very good for cleaning the undercarriage from road salt, or since it's a Jeep, OIL from when something lets go.

I use WD40 to clean hoses and plastic under the hood.
