Auto shop replaced a new radiator, but I can still smell coolant, when the radiator broke it spilled all over. How can I clean all the parts off & with what.

What I use is something like Simple Green, Purple power, Gunk Foamy engine brite or any detergent you can spray to get on all surfaces under the hood. Let it sit for 5 or 10 minutes... on a cold engine obviously, not a hot one. Then rinse well, and start it up so it can dry out ASAP.

I'm not a fan of spraying cold water on a hot engine at a car wash... plus the pressures at the wand tip can force water places you don't want water to be...
