New rider who fell for the S100 hype
Bought a large bottle of S100 cleaner and could not be more disappointed.
So far I used it twice and it leaves major major major film on bike!
Will not use ever again! I had much better results with a weak solution of dish soap in a bucket of water! I wish I had my 15 dollars back!

Has anyone ever tried a product called Dobatex Gold which i have been told is made by Shell. My new Dyna Fat Bob has road dirt on the front off the motor which i want to try to remove.

Been using Turtle Wax Ice for quite a while, it leaves a nice shine and the water beads up real good. Also make the windshield a little easier to clean the next time you need to wash.
I use diluted Simple Green (cold motor) and every now and then some Engine Brightner (cold motor and I wipe down any excess) never had a problem.

ditto. been using it for years without issue.
also for you guys with powdercoated parts, wheels, etc. you must pay attention to what you're using on those parts. Lots of detergents are too harsh for use on powdercoating.

I have used it in the past, but after seeing what it did to a friends bike it will not be on mine ever again. Turtle Ice Wash does a better and safer job and leaves it nice and shiny.
