Will Groomers let you run the Motor while they clean it?? TX.. If you're taking it to a groomer/valet, they should know what they are doing if they are reputable. A plastic bag over the AFM would do. Also, spraying everything electronic with a silicone based spray will help aswell as long as you don't go silly with it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
