How to keep your tractor clean?

I’ve pressure washed under several vehicle hoods and never hurt anything yet. I usually pressure wash them before working on them and if if antifreeze is involved it gets washed at the end because I don’t like that sticky mess.

I clean if I'm working on the tractor for some other reason. Clean to inspect, not to make it pretty. I want to see if something is leaking and covered in crud can make that hard to see. If I know a good rain is in forecast I'll leave it parked outside to get the dust rinsed away by rain. Otherwise, I'm using it way too much to worry about pretty. 10 min bush hogging on a dry day, or anything recently after a rain and the dust or mud is everywhere. I don't do stupid stuff like let sticks pile up on the vinyl seat cover, or let the dash get covered and wipe with a dry rag scuffing it all up, but otherwise, it gets and stays dirty and trying to keep it looking new all the time would mean I bought it to clean it vs bought it to work it.

I like compressed air, and a fantastic product big in the motorcycle world called Bugslide. I use it on my cars, trucks, bikes, tractors, anything with shiny paint. Amazing stuff.
