    Has any of guys tried Crystal Glo cleanin kit? I just got the bike wash, polish, leather treatment and helmet & visor polish! it has really good reviews it was developed in USA for transporting cars it puts an acrylic shield on your paintwork to protect it from salt,bird shit,dust usual grime off the road, seamingly even minor scrapes and it all has sfp 30 sun block in it 2 stop the sun farkin up your colours! I bump into a guy in my local bike shop he had a black yamy midnight star absolutely gleaming! Stunning
    i asked what he used! He only ever uses baby shampoo & pledge and swears by it.

    The best cleaning product for me, is floor paint.
    It's true, I remove my bike from its storage place take it round to Bats for a few days, I gaurentee by the time the paint on the floor has set enough, the blade is gleaming. The paint work is like glass, and not one part has been missed :)
    Good stuff that floor paint :D

    Yep, us blokes can now cease worrying about 'gay' taunts when using wet wipes. In my view, one of the items that separates us from the beasts of the fields.

    And just in time for Dawn Porters 'Washlets'.


    Hmmmmmm Dawn Porter.

    This works best for me. It does clean the whole bike and you don't need other cleaning stuff. 2.5 ltr. It's the better version of the SDoc 100 !!!!


    S100 Motorcycle Total Cleaner in unique container:

    The S100 Total Cleaner goes from strength to strength. The new formula serves particularly to protect sensitive surfaces such as aluminium and chrome. The gel formula allows powerful adhesion, so it won???t run off. The active degreasing formula even removes grease thrown off the chain.

    Contains: 2.5 litres, Euro 29.95

    Available exclusively from Louis!

    SDOC 100 IMO is the best bike cleaner out there, don't use it every time as it's too expensive, tend to use one in 4 washes, or on parts that need it. Just be careful not to leave it on too long, it can discolour things
