Can't recommend the above enough. Just come back from a ride out and the bike was covered in dead insects and general cack. To clean the bike normally you would be talking a bucket of water, rubbing and then drying. Well not any more!

Simply spray on and wipe off with an old towel. Job done! Saves me an hour on bike cleaning now.



Thumbs Up

Hmm, might have to look into getting some of this.
Anyone know any online suppliers (I'm feeling too lazy to Google it).

I use quite a bit of the stuff myself. Really does make a nice difference, as long as you use a decent cloth which doesnt leave loads of fibers behind. Thumbs Up

£6 a litre sounds like it might just be worth a short Smile

Thanks for being less lazy than me Toby Very Happy

I've used this stuff for a few years and find it excellent. It is good for getting chain lube and brake dust off the wheels and seems to help keep plastic switches and other bits of black plastic looking fresh. I spray it on and use a rag or old toothbrush to clean stuff up then wash the bike afterwards.

The other benefit is it even smells OK.

Another tip for dealing with dead flies, soak some paper towel with water and lay it on the fairing or your visor, leave it for about 10-15 mins and the flies lift off.

I rate the stuff as well, especially good when keeping the bike clean through winter, it seems to be able to shift just about anything (and not harm components as much as stronger degreasers).
