Harly Wax
Harly Wax
I have just tried this Harly Wax (That is how its spelled). It is a grade A carnuaba wax with no cleaners, abrasives, etc.
I have used loads of products over the years and I have to say this seems as good as any.
It is difficult to say if its better than my usual Meguiars Gold Class liquid wax, or the Mequiars NXT tech wax, but its as good.
I'm hopeing that as I apply more and more coats it will produce that perfect shine.
One thing I am very impressed with is, I cleaned my chrome (not exhaust) with the HD chrome cleaner and then applied some of the Harly wax, and man does it shine.
This is the first time I have ever tried a hard wax, anyone else tried this or a similar product?

RE: Harly Wax
My friends and I use Pledge. Not lemon pledge but the original Pledge. It's a wax. Remember, a dining room set can have chrome, leather, vinyl, wood, painted surfaces, etc.
It goes on fast, cleans, leaves no residue and really shines.
It's cheap.
I might add that we don't spray it on most of the bike. We spray in on a rag and then wipe the bike. Easy, fast and nice.
Anyone know of any damage it can do?

I've used harly wax since 1989. I don't use anything else. First started using it on my '88 Shadow because that was what the guy I bought the bike from used. I couldn't believe there was a wax named Harly. My son now has that bike and the paint looks as good today as it did back then. I now use it on my '04 Road King. You used to be able to get it at local auto supply stores like Pep Boys, but now you can only get it on line. Goggle up Harly wax and the web page will show up.
