Re: Caring for my thunderbird

What is the time interval between to wax ?

Motomax polish isn't waterproof so if you wash your bike after a polish you need to reuse it. Turtle wax lasts for a month even after washing bike once every week and if you're ready to spend money then you can buy meguires wax which is said to last for months.

Re: Caring for my thunderbird

No, not three days.
I meant I can polish the bike 3 times on different occasions, until the can is empty.

Re: Caring for my thunderbird

I would avoid that, if you're referring to the tank's side area in the duke.
Also car interior or dashboard polish tend to make surfaces extremely slippery, so COMPLETELY AVOID applying to the seats, or throttle area, switchgear.

I made that mistake once, worst one ever.

bike polish!

Hey thanks rishi but what do you means by polish lasta three times , do you means three days ...

I mean with a ₹70 tiny can, I am able to polish the whole bike 3 times, with minimal use. (Read super kanjoos use or else you get polish deposited at some places)

There is also a ₹250 larger tin can available.



Attached photo is of ₹70 can that I'm currently using, with the sponge applicator that comes with the pack.

Re: Caring for my thunderbird

I can vouch for their quality, and a ₹50 shampoo lasts me 5-6 times, Polish lasts me three times.

Re: Caring for my thunderbird

Guys i came to know that teflon is a waste of money so decided to buy a wax polish kinda stuff, and today i saw a motul wash and wax and motomax wax, motomax fits my poket it costs rs70, or can anyone suggest me any gud and cheap wax (like for once a month). I dont want to know the products available obly online i want to get them through a shop .

I have been using the following:

Motomax shampoo

Motomax cream polish

Motomax dashboard polish
(For black plastic parts like rear fenders, etc.)

These products are manufactured by Pidilite (same company to make Fevicol, Feviquick). My intention to mention this is that they are made by reputed manufacturers at a very affordable price.

I can vouch for their quality, and a ₹50 shampoo lasts me 5-6 times, Polish lasts me three times.

The protection offered at this cost by the cream polish is minimal, but you get amazing gloss. Also, it is easiest to apply cream polish than other hard waxes.

These are quite possibly the most VFM products in my opinion.

Re: bike polish!

Hi Friends , I am struggling to find Collinite 840 , Can anyone point me to any online store.

Has anyone tried Eagle one products.

Bringingbest.in should have and I sell these as well.

EagleOne Nano Wax is pretty good for everyday or regular waxing. However, EagleOne NeverDull Wadding is excellent to polish metal. I'm a completely satisfied customer of NeverDull.

Collinitte 845 is a liquid wax 476s and 915 MarQ D Elegance are Paste Waxes. They need more elbow grease. Try with Collinitte 845 and Im sure you will be satisfied too.
