Maguires quick detailer is what I'm using and windshield washer (not windshield cleaner) on the wheels to get brake dust off. Twice a season Zypher Pro-40 polish. Fred
 
What are y'all using to clean your painted and chrome surfaces after a ride. I have several but not super pleased with any of them and I know there are newer products out there that are probably better. Suggestions?

I'm looking at this on Amazon:

Aero Cosmetics Wet or Waterless Car Wash Wax Kit 144 Ounces. Aircraft Quality for Your Car, RV, Boat, Motorcycle. The Best Wash Wax. Anywhere, Anytime, Home, Office, School, Garage, Parking Lots.

This looks interesting and priced reasonably. I use F11 and am looking at paying about $200 for a gallon. F11 is really good and very easy to get great results with. They say it only takes 2 ounces to do a dually pickup so it does stretch. I would love to see a side by side comparison of these products.

My favorite detailer:

Holy Christmas, how many of us have gobs of cleaners, waxes, detailers on the shelf, and still looking. I haven tried this 303 yet but I may. I drop over to Amazon and see how much it is. I see you live in FL west coast, must be good on bugs. :>)
 

This has been my go to detailer for years but I ran out and thought maybe I'd try something different. I think I'm going to order the stuff in my first post from Amazon and see how it works. The Amazon reviews are good and lots of them and the price is right.

I been using the Honda spray wax for 15+years, Also sold as ....[Honda stop selling it for a time]

The Original bike spirts, Spray cleaner and Polish..

Before that i was using Pig Snot.....
 
For a few years I was using Wizard's Mist and Shine. It was used by all the Harley salespeople on the floor models at our dealership. It removes bugs without having to use a separate product and would really shine up the paint and chrome as well as the windshield. About two years ago I tried Lucas Speed Wax and really was impressed with that. Works very much the same as the Wizard's product but about $5 or $6 cheaper than Wizards. The Wizard's I was getting at the HD dealership for $14. but the Lucas Speed Wax I get at Walmart for $8.95.

[FONT=&quot]Rain‑X® Waterless Car Wash & Rain Repellent for the paint and Rain‑X® Plastic Water Repellent for the windshield. I just started using the waterless car wash but so far I'm very pleased with it. [/FONT]
 
I saw that on Speed channel tv

I use Pledge furniture polish and Windex

2nd on the pledge. I use the orange though. I don't want it to smell like a lemon.:laugh:

Back in my younger years, I raced sports cars. Pledge was the only wax that was slippery enough for a rag to slide off the roof. Made it 10 miles an hour faster!!:D
 
I have become a big fan of Lucas Speed Wax. All of their detailing products need to be shaken well.:Dorag:

The HD & the Original spray polish both work well. The Lucas wins in the application, as it's very easy on & off with a great shine.
 
I like Yamaha Spray Polish and Detailer. I have been using it for about 20 years, since the can was red and black. Now it is yellow and black but the same great stuff. I have tried Pledge ( can't fine the unscented anymore), Honda, Bike Spirits, many others but always come back to the Yamaha. Easy to get, works great and cheap ($7.00)
 
What about the rage in ceramic polishes?

They sound good and they show good on TV but are they good and do they last.

I gotta do the bike soon and I need to know what to get....... DISCUSS!

Stay safe
