what are you using to clean the metal *silver* portion of your wheels? and primary and top of tubs satin polished look parts...? my rear wheel is getting a little oxidation on it so I want to keep it the same look and not shine it all up...

 

Anyone????

 

i use blue magic for all my chrome and allum.it gives a great shine and cleans great,also leaves a silicon coat that repels water..car guest or auto zone.i have tried many other products and this is the best i have found,its like $8 a jar

 

I just use windex for mine if it gets a little mangy. Other than that i just rinse the bike off with water. I prefer the dirty well riden look.

 

the silver portion of my wheels.. Brasso
the black portion of my wheels.. simplegreen car wash (soap/water) then i actually spray some HD Engine Brightener or some S100 on them
The tops of the tubes i dont know what you're talking about..if you're referring to the aluminum lowers, mine are PC'd black so i can't help you there..
everything else on the bike i just use my simple green carwash, then try it nicely and use some Harley Gloss... or if i'm feeling adventurous, ill use some Turtle Wax Ice liquid wax..makes the vivid black paint shine like heck.

 

Windex and a microfiber towel does the trick for me.

 

That's exactly what I use for the whole bike...

 

+2 on the Windex and microfiber cloth...

 

+3...

 

I think the brake dust helps with the whole "blacked out" bike thing...
