Re: Motorcycle Detailing Thread

Hi friends I want to know how to remove dust formed on day to day basis on tank ,panels etc .does wiping with a old cotton banian good enough or will it cause scratches. I thought of just flushing with water every day but I came to know it is harmful .please help me

Use a microfiber towel. You can buy it from 3M or online. Will cost 250 bucks upwards depending on the size. Use 2 towels : One for wet wiping and another for dry wiping.

Thanks. If dust is present and if we wipe with mf towel then won't it cause scratches. Also is it not manageable with a banian for time being .

Microfiber won't cause scratches that is why I suggested it. For everything jugaad can be applied, so you can use "banian" for the time being of course. Just ensure you do not wipe forcefully over the surface, especially if debris is present on the bike.

Hi guys.. There is n number of solutions to remove scratch in metal parts. But is there any way to remove scratches on the fiber/plastic parts?? These are also more prone to scratches in parking lots and can we restore the original finish to an level??

You cannot remove a scratch from Plastics- but you can use a composite based resin - filler gel and dye that needs to be mixed at the right proportions and then used to cure the plastic(needs an oven too) Might be expensive but works on some Vintage parts that are no longer in production or be moulded.

Re: Motorcycle Detailing Thread

I am a motorcycle broker and have detailed hundreds of bikes. Here are a couple of my favorite tricks:
Pledge furniture polish sprayed onto a rag (not directly onto the bike) is my universal go to cleaner. It handles 90+% of the cleaning quickly and efficiently.
0000 steel wool with WD40 takes rust off like nothing else.
Lift the back wheel and put it in neutral for full access to rear wheel, sprocket, and chain
Wd40 also cuts old chain lube in a heartbeat
A black sharpie felt pen is perfect for touching up black areas
A quality silicone dressing like SC1 is the perfect finishing touch to make the bike look new again. Don't get dressing on tire treads!!

There are a lot of chrome polishing products available.

Meg's Nxt Metal, AutoSol, Brasso, Abro, Eagle One Never Dull, 3m Chrome and Metal Polish, Brite-O, Xado, InstaFinish, Collinite 850, Mothers, and a lot more.

Of all the products that I have tested and used - for Ease of usage and results I would rate BriteMax at the very top.

BriteMax offers excellent VFM and it would last for more than 50 bikes.

BriteMax comes with a twin pack - BriteMax Easy and BriteMax Final

Here are a few images that I have captured recently using BriteMax.
