motorcycle cleaning
Does anyone know where or what stores carry Mequires foaming motorcycle cleaner? I live in Ontario and have looked to no avail. What stores if any carry this in the states or Ontario?

I fill a bucket with mild dish soap with a conditioner base that I thoroughly wipe the bike down with then follow up with Orange Pledge for waxing....been doing that for years with exceptional results...bike always looks showroom clean (actually better than showroom clean).

Not sure if this is what you are looking for, but here's a link to Meguiars Motorcycle EZ Clean Spray & Rinse features Xtreme Cling™ foam, designed to stick to vertical surfaces to promote better cleaning.

I start out sparying some MeanGrean Degreaser Concentrate mix on the oily areas .. I am a spiller ha ha. I get this in a big jug at Dollar General.
Then i use BlueCoral Wash and Wax mix .I get this in a big jug at WallyWorld.
Then i dry off with micro fiber towel and finish up wth Pledge.
These products are THRIFTY! Easy to use .Great results.
I recently had to friends comment how much better my bike looked compared to theres .They both were using expensive cleaning and detailing products.

For what it's worth, I tried the barley quick wash spray...don't suggest. It..leaves streaks and spots after good rinse and dries up fast in sun...
I've seen some of these easy cleaners...use caution, they have corrosive hand symbol on them..I'd say u really need to make sure it's completely well rinsed...buddy has a Mr clean gizmo. Friggen amazing but they don't sell it anywhere.

+1 on the Pledge. Does a great job on paint, chrome, windshield, and leather. It leaves no residue quick and easy to apply and wipe off. Make sure you use clean miro cloth for the job. Your bike will look great!
