Default Pledge

I can't remember who posted that using Pledge furnature polish on your bike really shined it up. I thought that they were full of crap, so I didn't try it. Today I was in my garage messing around and tried it. MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!! My paint looks wet now. Just like the hot sauce com I used that **** on everything. It make my paint and chrome look like they were wet. It is much easier to mess with than wax and chrome polish too. Just wipe it on, turn the micro fiber over and wipe it dry. They were right----it was just that simple.

Lemon Pledge has been used on MC's since at least 1990. I found it worked super on my Bright Candy Ruby paint on a Softail, but not so good on the Vivid Black FL I have now.

I have had My bike for 4ys, 37K, and I have only used Lemon Pledge. Bike still looks like new. When the bike was brand new a Friend told Me how good pledge was. I thought He was pulling My leg. I tried it on the rear fender when the seat was off to test it. Well, I have been using it ever since.

Pledge must have spies reading these forums. Have you seen their commercials lately?

Motorcycles are now mentioned.

Just make sure you buy the POLISH, and not the cleaner. The cans are similar.

There was a guy on my dorm in college 30+ years ago that always used Lemon Pledge on his car. His car always looked great. I just convinced my daughter to use it on her bike. Her boyfriend thought I was nuts until he saw the results.

I started using Lemon Pledge when I was a kid ( I'm 62 now ) on a second hand T-Bird I bought from my sister. I think it was 1966. It's been shining a whole lot more than tables fo a looooong time!

Tried them both, like the black box on my black Ultra, the pledge works but leaves streaks, ya have to come back after 15 mins to get it right with another wipe down. Pledge works great on my sunglo ultra. Black box is expensive, they should sell that detailer separately.
