Consuming the stuff may be detrimental, but you'll have a beautiful finish!

I packed a pack of the pre-moistened Pledge wipes in the saddlebags for a recent trip. It only took one to clean the windshield. Definitely a must have from now on.

The seat. Although it won't hurt the leather/vinyl, it makes it slicker than snot.

If the black on your engine looks a bit dull spray it down with Lemon pledge and rub it in with an old towel. it will be black again!

I personally HAVE had bees come around when I do a FULL detail from top to bottom and just COAT the bike with it....rub it in, then buff everything out with another clean soft towel. You know you are using alot of it when your hands start to get irritated from having the Pledge on them! Itchy and start to turn pink....then it's time to wash them up real good and buff!

Makes the bike look showroom nice every time.

But DON'T get it on the tires or seat!

That's why I went with the Orange instead, the bees will swarm you garage with the lemon. Has anyone noticed they changed the formula recently, the wax doesn't seem as thick and it doesn't come out thick like it used to and it's clear rather than white? Johnson and Johnson states they changed the formula and it's not getting good reviews from die-hard loyal users.

I'd love to hear some more reviews about the new formula from folks who used the old for a long time. Would love to try it!
