Re: Motorcycle Detailing Thread

Hi friends my 3 month old hornet has got a lot of swirl marks which are visible under direct light.I am using waxpol scooter polish and thought to buy motomax liquid polish as I heard it reduces swirls. Is it good product in that price range or is there any better product in that price range.I am short on cash.

But do remember that the scratches I had was on metal parts, I am not sure how well the Scratch out would perform on plastics.

Formula 1 scratch out experience

Didn't work at all on the plastic tank of the RC, maybe the scratches were too deep but even the barley visible scratches didn't go away. Also the seems like paint got faded where i applied the paste.

F1 Scratch out doesn't work even with a rotary machine. You can try 3M Finesse it II if its available. or Try Meguiars ScratchX

This is the reason I suggest try Professional Detailers and get MaxProtect coating and enjoy for two to three years StressFree.

If you are bangalore, I have some unused stock of ScratchX, Feel free to pick it up try it and see. PM me if interested.

How does one maintain the shine and dust free look after washing and waxing the bike ?
Is it advisable to dry wipe the bike with microfiber cloth to remove the settled dust ?

Any spray and wipe kind of product available to take care of that ??

I have got many small scratches and swirls here and there. How can i prevent them in future ?

After washing and waxing you can remove the dust with micro fiber cloth. I use a bike cover after wards. Some dust will settle no escaping that.

True, no escape from dust.

Waxes are dust magnets too. I would suggest you to use polymer sealants like UPGP, Car Pro Reload, MaxProtect Silk Coat as they have anti static properties that will help you wipe off dust with ease.

Microfibres which are thick (300gsm onwards) and with longer lints will help immensely.

Just a good microfibre with good lint with help. Gently swipe off the dust and you can do it everyday.

post dusting you can use waterless wash concentrates like Ultima Waterless Wash, Greenduck Waterless wash, Optimum No Rinse, proklear waterless etc.

No escape from swirls, but you can avoid deeper swirls and isolated lines by using the microfibre to gently remove off the dust.

If you want to clean and maintain the shine you should buy formula 1 wash and wax and formula 1 paste wax.
Wash and wax is basically a shampoo which will clean the paint well after that you can apply paste wax which is a wax basically and will offer shine and some protection to paint.
Formula 1 bike clean is a different product.
It is a spray and wipe type of product which will only be useful if your bike is already clean and you want to get rid of the daily dust.
