There's nothing better getting home in the dark after a rainy, wet muddy day and then remembering you need to clean the dirt/salt off your bike.

At the moment I use a degreaser to remove the dirt and salt.

But I'd like to give it a quick greasing (wheel hubs, pegs, screws etc) - preferably a spray for ease of use.

Is there anything out there (cheap) that'll do the trick?

I have lubes and greases but nothing in spray form.

Cheers.

Give it a good clean then coat in ACF50 then leave until spring. It will get caked in dirt etc but will be protected by the ACF50. When the weather improves give it a good clean.

Otherwise WD40/GT85.

Duck Oil comes in a spray, it leaves an oily covering, unlike WD40 which de-oils everything.
It is a low surface tension oil so it will dissolve grease, so you would have to regrease at some point.
