NOPE

Only bike shops as I know of... If your somewhere where it rains alot, you can use DUCKY to clean your bike off while its wet that shizzle works too.

I ride in practically all weather -- well, except snow. A bike can get grungy real fast. I like to wash it with the basic soap & water then dry off and use Honda polish.

OK,

I just when to my local dealer and bought a couple cans of this stuff (Honda Spray)....

OH... MY... GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If I had to label this it would be "Sex in a can". This stuff is insane!

There were scratches I used everything to try and get out... BAM! Gone!

The chain splatter on the powder coated frame case.... booom! taken out and I only had to rub it with a damn t-shrt

This stuff took out every spec of dirt, bug crap and blemish (including every scratch) on my entire bike.

I went back and bought 10 more cans just so I will never run out! At 6 bucks a can it is a smokin deal. I would pay 20 bucks a can.

I do not know what they put in this stuff but it is the best cleaner on the planet. Liked it so much I went accross the street and woke up my neighbor, dragged his butt out of bed just to get someone to see this magic.

If you do not have it, go get it. You wont be sorry. Smells friggen good to. Puts you in a good mood and makes you sing while you clean, LOL.

Oh one other thing I found out today. Go down to Home Depot and buy yourself a leaf blower for 30 bucks. It works totally awesome when you use it to blow dry the bike after washing it.

Anyways, I had to tell someone. Thanks for the recommendation. I am sold.

I went to a local dealer and they have all S100 products. I got some spray on wash, spray on wax, and a metal cleaner and protector. I really like the stuff. I also got some Simple Green. I was told that if you get the bike wet you need to put some type of neutralizer, like Simple Green on the powder coated parts(wheels, frame) or the acid in the rain will just eat the powder coat. Anyone heard this???

ORIGINAL: OneWheelinRR

at our shop, we use honda polish for EVERYTHING... no joke, no lies. We use it for the counters, for th emirrors in the bathroom, to clean our shoes, the computer screens and keyboards, and on our cars....

Honda polish is good, but if your hands sweat, you'll get these nasty *** marks on your tank, and itll collect MADDDD DUST...

Use PLEXUS... that stuff takes off hard water spots and other crap like that, and leaves you with a CLEANER bike, not just a bike with polish on it thats oily and attracts ****.

PLEXUS - use it...


I MUST AGREE... plexus is great at CLEANING...

and Honda Polish is great @ POLISHING.... & 100+ uses...

but money-wise its a lot more economical to go with PLEXUS... to get your bike clean.

They dont sell that stuff in the uk, whats it called? just Honda cleaner? I just wash with water and a detergent for bikes, then rinse n dry it of with a chamois leather. Job done, polish with Auto Glym hard resin polish, its the dogs bollox. U guys probably don`t get that over there.
