If you ever were interested to see if that Mr Clean auto dry car wash device works the cheapo store Big Lots has it for $4. Online it shows the 3 pack for $12. I use one and it works good on my UC. It helps minimize water spots from the crappy hard water i have. For that price i am going to pick up a few more for later use.

You might be seeing the refill packs as they do run a few bucks. I have been using one of these for about 5 years now and it is da bomb! so to speak!

Buy all you can or think you'll ever need. Once they are gone, they are gone for good. They never sold enough to keep this product alive. (Hint when you see a product in Big Lots, that's pretty much it) I can only hope they will continue to sell refills for those who like this product.

I thought of buying one myself, but as another person posted somewhere on this forum, when i wash the bike and rinse it, i use a 2 gallon sprayer with distilled water and rinse it of before it dries and i never have water spots.
I buy the gallon jugs at walmart for about 69 cents a piece.

I just use a power washer with dawn detergent, then dry with a leaf blower. I try to keep things simple.

I use to use Dawn washing cars also, but I have been told dish soap will eventually loosen paint and never to use it on a car. I would assume a motorcycle is the same. It did work nice though.
