Thank You all for the Info,,, Greatly Appreciated, Thanks !!!

 

Mild detergent n water and wipe 2-3 times to get off all the lint. Windex does help.

 

I had no issues applying it....

I agree the purpose of the Denim paint is to have a new bike that looks like it's old....

I would of posted a picture of the fender....but my next experiment was to see what happened when I took a Scotchbrite pad to it....

LOVE the denim paint. So easy to clean, and looks just fine if you choose to never clean it! The other night I spilled gas all over my tank trying to be smooth with a gas can and it was the first bath she has had in almost a year.

 

Windex.

Gotta love dat Denim paint...

 

I use NOTHING but windex on mine

 

WINDEX is all you need. If you want it to go to that dark showroom denim. Use Harley Gloss. Works awesome!
Here is the method I use.

Windex on everything (frame, tins, spokes, mirrors, lights, everything) using a real fine microfiber cloth.
Use Harley Gloss after the Windex (Do not let the Harley Gloss dry on the bike. It is a nightmare to get the spots off.)
Then I will use maybe some wheel cleaner if they are really dirty. Harley Wheel Cleaner.
Sometimes I use the bug off, but I wipe it down enough that Windex does the job.
Then use PIG SPIT on the crinkle black parts. Cover your Denim Tins when you spray. It will spot them up. I have never done the crinkle first. Might save me from having to cover up the tins, but it is a good habit to get into. Covering up stuff on your Harley. Accidents happen when cleaning and wrenching.

Your bike will be super clean, and look like the day you pulled it off the showroom. Honest.

 

Denim is badass!!....manual says windex....talked to 3 dealers....all said something different 1)WINDEX...2)MILD DISH SOAP....3)AMMONIA AND WATER....HAHAHAH,they pretty much all said it will fade like a pair of jeans.read a horror story of someone waxing it.....had to degrease it....like the thread! keep it rollin

 

Been using Windex on my Denim 09 Rocker since new. never takes more than a few minutes to clean it up. I also had the complete opposite of cleaning ease with a Vivid Black Ultra. Never ending cleaning and I was almost never satisfied. Flipping swirl and dust magnet... lol.... Denim and Windex great combo...

 

My ol lady has a denim SB and uses a regular car wash solution from autozone......Dealers also sell a detailer specific for denim paint. There is actually a "clear coat" on the denim paint...Rwegardless of what you do any amount of "over rubbing" is going to create a burnished or slightly more glossy appearance good luck. I think the carwash is either the Blue Coral or the Meguiars
