[QUOTE=MNPGRider;8818753]Take a some 3% hydrogen peroxide in a dark spray bottle (light deteriorates it) and spray on the bug guts. The peroxide dissolves the proteins in the bugs and they wipe right off./QUOTE]

wow, you guys were actually serious about the lemon pledge. lol I have heard people talk about it on here but usually in conjunction with some comment about assless chaps. I thought I needed to lube my cheeks with the pledge before donning my assless chaps. aw, crap, I've been doing it all wrong.

Since Pledge has changed is formula my wife sent SC Johnson an email with regard to using the new formula on a motorcycle, below is their response. Looks like it's a no go....


Thanks for getting in touch with us, Rene

Yes, we have recently changed the formulation for all of our PledgeŽ Furniture Sprays. That said, as we currently are not offering a petroleum-based product that is recommended for use on a motorcycle, we would suggest getting in touch with an auto detailer for an appropriate suggestion.

Kind regards,

I agree. When I first opened the thread and saw the start date I figured this was just somebody else saying it works great. This is pretty important as many of us use it.

They're just covering their ***. I'm using the new Pledge and it works just as well as the old stuff did.
