so is the S100 that came in the mail today REALLY that easy?
I'm reading the box:

"Spray on, rinse off cleaner"

"Cleans the ENTIRE cycle in only 5 minutes!"

"Pain, chrome, alloy plastic, rubber, bearings, etc..."

:wow:

REALLY? Just spray everything, and hose down for a sparkley, shiny wonder machine?

wait..

AND Biodegradable????

:woohoo:

1. If it works like their engine cleaner you're gonna be a happy camper
I tried the stuff out for the first time about a week and a half ago. The one I got was their engine brightener, not the general cleaner - which I hear is wonderful too - and I was just amazed how good a job it did just spraying it on. Overspray didn't goober up the chrome either. Let us know how it works for you. I thought the spray can I bought was outrageously expensive but after seeing how it worked I'd buy it again in a heartbeat. If you like the cleaner it will put me in the poorhouse I guess, but anything for the bike.

3. yes, it's great
Edited on Wed May-21-08 05:05 PM by GTRMAN
I like to mist the bike down with the hose before I spray the cleaner, it helps to spread it around and keeps it from concentrating and drying in one place. Words of caution, DO NOT let the cleaner dry on the bike and make sure you rinse the bike thoroughly. Also, make sure and wear rubber gloves, if you have a nick, scratch or cut on your hand and this stuff gets in it, you won't forget it anytime soon :wow:

But all in all, it's a great product, I highly reccomend it :thumbsup:

on edit: also, if you have wire spoke wheels, a soft baby bottle brush works great when cleaning them

7. not that I know of
I spray it on the whole bike. I'll mist the bike down pretty good, spray it on and then use a sponge or rag and wash the whole bike down with it, then rinse it off. It is amazing at getting the bugs off the windshield and chrome. Be sure to treat your leather with a good protectant.

5. Works like a charm.
I bought it by the gallon at the Harley dealer, starting about 7 years ago.

My bike has leather bags, and I spray everything down with it, and hose it off.

I wish they had this stuff 30 years ago, when I was famous for having the dirtiest bike in the club. Too busy riding it to wash and wax it.
