Some of us like to keep our bikes looking the best they can and ride them as well, 09' with 28,000 miles and looks just as good today as when I brought her home, And that's what this forum is for good Ideas from the Best R&D people I know "RIDERS"

Application
Have read tons about this and have not done it yet, but this weekend if the rain EVER stops I will wash and wax the bike entirely. This is where my question comes from, spray on or wipe it on? Have read lots but i am not sure of either or if it makes a difference or not? Thanks all.

Incidently:
I only use the HD brand blinker fluid. Used it to avoid causing a warranty issue then never switched.

I use Lemon Pledge,been using it for years and love it. Secret is to not put on to thick and do a small area at a time. I have heard of some saying it atracks bees with the sent but i have never had a problem. Good Stuff,even the new commercials for pledge show using it on Motorcycles .............o~`o..................

I spray it on thick, let it sit to start dissolving bugs and such. Then I use one micro-fiber cloth to wipe the mess off. I let that dry for a couple of minutes then follow with a clean micro-fiber cloth to get the swirl marks out. It works great.

Kinda sounds like what I do with the Wizard's Mist and Shine. I get it now, thanks.

Just don't get caught cleaning your bike with pledge, people who are not aware of the Pledge magic will think you're a nutcase.
I mail ordered a box and presented it to my wife as a gift.
She shook her head and stocked it int the cleaning closet.
Just use good quality micro fibre cloths like the ones from 3M.
They have several colors varying in softness. The yellows are plain brilliant.
There is an excellent thread about a chemical analysis of pledge here: https://www.hdforums.com/forum/detai...on-pledge.html
