+1 looks awesome when they start foaming up and almost rinse right off.

Just returned from a 3 hour ride and used my free sample 303 Speed Detailer for the bugs and light water spray which had dried. I was impressed with how easy and quickly it worked in cleaning up the front end of the bike.

I used my 303 Free Sample stuff today also. Started with the Cleaner then went to the Speed Detailer. Good stuff.

I use the water and peroxide. But I just wipe it off with a wet T-shirt or micro fiber then when it dries go over it with some quick detailer. This works well on my black bike.

Is that what Jed Clampett used when he shot the wings of flies off his front gate wall.

I joined their VIP club (Gold Eagle products). About every 4-6 weeks they send me a sample of something. All I am "obligated" to do is post a review of the product. As for the free samples, I am still using the box of free samples I was sent by a representative on this site. Ditto on the "good stuff".

I've been using wizard products for some time now with good results. I use the "Mist-n-Shine" and "Bug Release". I carry the 8oz spray bottle of Mist n Shine on the mc for quick windshield cleanup on the road. I get the yellow micro-fiber rags at Costco in a big bundle.
