Cleaning your bike

Post by littleblondie »

Hi guys

Just wondered what cleaning products you used for your bike?
I have heard only use proper bike cleaning products and Mr Sheen will do!!! What are your views?

cheers

I was given a tip of using WD40 and a toothbrush for the wheels, it brought them up great.
Also used a rag with WD40 on it on the Micron exhaust, again brought it up nice and shiny and even got rid of the melted boot marks. Just make sure you let everything cool down first.

For the rest of the bike I used normal glass cleaner and have even used WD40 on a rag. God I love WD40 :smt007

Most cleaning products will do, you just gotta make sure when using stuff like WD40 you don't get it on the rubber bit's etc. :smt018

A picture just after the WD40 clean!!
