    • I have been using Armor All wash and wax...The shine this gets to the bike is amazing. You can literally feel a thin layer of wax being there on the bike. Just wipe with a MF cloth and the bike will shine back in full glory!

                Usually they are giving applicator pad with the wax.

                Piece of any clean cotton cloth is enough. Washed banyan clothe is excellent for this purpose.

                  To apply any cloth will do, but to clean rub the polish MF is MUST; Mitt is used on totally different context; its used to clear off excessive mud & dirt.

                              Comment


                              • colin for the bike ??? no way... its gonna blow off the colour man after few times.. its mildly acidic...

                                use shampoo and a lint free cloth to wash bike and use good polish for painted surface and vinyl for plastic and matt finish parts.
