Hi All

I've been using this stuff on my bike bike for the last couple of weeks in the hope its gonna help reduce corrosion with all the gritting thats been going on lately.

Question is how often do you wash your bike when ya using it?

My bikes getting a bit caked in crap now after a few weeks of winter riding and im wondering if i shoudl wash everything off n start against with the FS365 or jsut leave it to build up and get a thicker layer of crap mixed with the scottoiler stuff.

Any suggestions?

Cheers

Gaz.

FS365 will wash off every time it rains so your supposed to reapply it every time it gets wet. Its not like ACF-50 which stays on so you can let the crap build up and wash it all off in spring.

so would it be better to actually wash my bike then start re-applying, or just continue spraying the stuff on over the crap thats there?

In my experience wash the bike properly as often as possible, then reapply FS365 while the bike is still wet after rinsing. Thumbs Up

Yeah washing then reapplying will probably be best for FS365.
