that white stuff is just wax build up, it builds in the creases on my bikes, and i usually just go ahead and wipe it off with a tooth brush and some water.

can't believe no one has said bike brite yet.

i use bike brite, shammy, meguires spray wax, PJ1 lube, a handful of microfiber cloths.

bike brite you just simply spray it on, let soak for 1-2 minutes, use a microfiber cloth or hand mit and gently rub in, and spray off... expensive stuff, but frickin works great.

Armor All car wash soap with sponge for the wheels and grimy areas. A micro fiber wash mit for the rest of the bike. Simple green in really stubborn areas and a handfull of microfiber towels to dry. then i use honda polish everywhere except for the wheels. I use wheel wax on the wheels, earier to clean and keeps clean for longer
