I've been stung by bees twice while riding. Not really something I want to risk! The scariest though was when I had a bee sting the inside of my helmet while I was riding!

Consider me a moron here...apply with a clean microfibr towel?

Do you spray directly on paint or on cloth first?

Also, i have a Vivid black bike, so it gets dusty working around the barn, if i spray on cloth and wipe bike wont that scratch the paint?

I spray it on a micro to apply (generally to the whole bike, chrome and all) and then flip it over to give it a quick light buffing.

i spray it every where, including the motor. i totally soak everything then let it soak a bit. start wiping with a terry cloth rag for the excess and polishing with a micro fiber. i noticed when it sits the water thats in it evaporates leaving a thicker residue. just dont use the terry cloth on the motor it will be nice and fuzzy.

You can also used it for your coffee table and end tables . Someone pointed this out a while ago. I just took an hour or so and waxed mine the other day!

I had a bee hit me in the ear once... I felt a stinging pain thinking it was just SOME BUG... then it started to throb... then it felt like a headache and my jaw started to feel tight on the right side. I felt of my ear and I could hear a clicking noise. It was the stinger buried deep into my cartilage. It had to stay for about 20min just pumping away with the venom as they do... then finally I got to work and borrowed some tweezers to pull the stinger out. It was just less than 1/8" or so long. Now I have a tiny Swiss Army knife at all times... $8 and I now have a toothpick and tweezers readily available...
