OK, most of you probably already know this, but I didn't really realize the extent of it.

I was using Pledge for quick wipe-downs on the bike and sidecar, and carrying a roll of paper towels for it. I kept getting blue-ish streaks and clouding. It was driving me NUTS. Then I grabbed a microfibre cloth from my garage, and one quick wipe, and it was all nice and shiny.

So -- no paper towels (I knew this but still...). You really need to use the polishing cloth to make it work right.

 

Never ever use paper towel...it will scratch your paint/clear coat

 

LOL! i just found out the same thing this last weekend.

 

Yer dog is cool

 

Just getting ready to say the same thing...

Also, NEVER use paper towels with acrylic. That means, no windshields, visors, etc. If you want to look through it, don't use paper towels on it...unless it is pure glass. Otherwise, paper towels will put a whole lot of scratches in the surface and cause a lot of damage.

Educational television...woo-hoo!

Good to see what the kids are learning these days...and it doesn't hurt to learn a few good things myself!

Thanks!

I use paper towels and Pledge on my furniture, not on my bikes.
