Jet Dry 2-caps ( for dishwashers ) put into a hudson sprayer top off with water. Spray bike down & walk away. Then during the week as you get dusty wipe off with lemon Pledge furniture polish ( every surface, except glass ) Your bike will be shinier then any high dollar pain the **** Harley product sold. Cheap & Easy like I like my women.

Nothing wrong with soap and water with a major clean and detail. I use Simple Green concentrate as a degreaser. On the road I use this stuff called "Original Bike Spirits" Spray Cleaner and Polish.Get it at the local Honda shop,no water needed.This stuff works great on dirty,oxidized, powder coated engine cases.Makes them look brand new.Plexus on the windshield.

I only wash My bike after riding it it the rain, which is seldom here in West Texas. Otherwise I get the bugs off a 50/50 mix of Hydrogen Peroxide and water, Spray on and wipe off with microfiber cloth. Then I use Invisable Glass to get the road grime off. Last I polish the bike with Lemon pledge. Hope this helps You, it works for Me.

Mine gets lots of soap and water and Lemon Pledge. It gets dirty as hell so it needs a real good cleaning often. Dry it off with a leaf blower. Pretty high tech, huh?

Wizards Mist N Shine and a microfiber cloth. It doesn't remove wax. Bike looks better than the day I bought it.

Try it, or don't and keep working hard. It works and whatever road film the jet dry won't remove the pledge will and leave it shinier than the day you bought it.
