What technique do you use for cleaning the frame and exterior of the engine?

i used a lot of different wire brushes. 3m scotch brite pads. a little sand paper. it doesn't cost much but it is a lot of work. to me the work is worth it and it will be a very clean bike.

Whatever you are doing, keep it up. Those of us lucky enough to watch the process are enjoying it.
