Dawn will only remove wax thats on it absolute last leg, still not guaranteed.
With the price of maxl and f1, a true ceramic coating could have been used. But thats personal preference

Guess I was mislead by so many on here that says that's what they do.
It seemed to work OK. Paint looks fine on the old 04 setting in the garage.
Sometimes it's hard to interpret fact from fiction on here.
Going to find out..maybe

+7 Yes, many motorcycle riders and car ownersparticularly in classic car circlesuse Lemon Pledge furniture polish as an alternative to specialized wax. It is widely used for cleaning, polishing, and protecting paint, chrome, plastic, and windshield

The other point is just to say it is done. It's not made up. This topic really bothers you.

I think Lemon Pledge has become an inside joke to those who actually do professional detailing, (snicker). Almost like the inside joke of vehicle batteries lasting 25 years. Commercial application is different as those are able to be rebuilt.

Lots of threads on this forum and others about normal people with bikes they ride using it. Not like it's going to explode
Not sure why that guy posted the link to industrial batteries that last 20 years.
