Default Acf-50

Hi Guys,

Every time i go to halfords to buy bike essentials lol, they always try to sell me ACF-50 but i always decline, never knew what it was. Well i googulated it and am loving what i'm reading especially as i ride all year round.

What i want to know is what everyone else thinks of it?

If it's any good i'll buy some this weekend.

Ta..

It's good stuff. I put it on all the rust-prone areas and bolts etc and works wonders. Definately use it if you ride all year round.

Plenty of posts on here about it, but yes it's good stuff. Just be mindful of not getting on brakes, pegs, bars and anywhere else where a lack of friction is going to be cause a problem.

We talked about doing the allyearbiker thing last year, I don't think we had enough interest. I've got my own can of ACF50 at home. It seems okay, I've also got FS365. Neither have stopped corrosion on a rusty part of my garage door mechanism.

Can have an adverse effect on electrics, had hid units and they would short out when sprayed with acf50, it's mildly conductive.

That is meant to actually be v effective!

Anyways buy a can and spray away (avoid the brakes tho!)
