I detail bikes on the side, and I use The Mr Clean System as the start clean, and after its finished detailed I use it to cleand the bike, and tell my customers about it so they can keep thier bike cleaner1

As for washing - any good car wash works well for me. I LOVE the Dupont #7 car polish (for 40 years came in a squared off dark green can, now in a white plastic bottle). Chrome or paint, it's EZ and shines like crazy!

Better get on eBay and buy all the filters and soap you can for the Mr Clean system. When they are gone they are gone. Its been discontinued.
