I got ACF 50 from my bike dealers.

Don't spray though just spray into the cap and then use a paintbrush.

Just a note that it's far better value to buy a litre bottle than an aerosol can. It'll last you longer than your bike.

I had both.
FS-365 is designed to use daily.
ACF-50 is designed to be used once in a while. Works better but make the bike look dirty easier.

There is also the Corrosion Block. Same people that make ACF-50.
Corrosion Block protects bike even better and last longer but makes it super dirty after one ride. Works fantastic for winter riding when you don't mind the bike look.


BTW: The best way to use ACF-50 for me is to use a tiny paint brush. You can get everywhere when using minimum of the product. 1 bottle should last few lifetimes.
