Sploges when cleaning??

Hi guys,
I'm now the proud owner of my second SV, just had her over a week and haven't stopped riding, regardless of the weather!

I've just cleaned her and noticed these white sploges on the mirrors (they are after market ones) I used to get this all over the frame of my speed four after cleaning. It was just a nice gloss black before washing it.
I use the 2 bucket method, wash twice and dry with a microfibre cloth. I've used muc off and some standard car shampoo and still get the same result. Sorry about poor photo quality, damn phone wont focus!



I have checked all the shampoo / muc off has been rinsed off and been dried properly.

Any ideas how to stop the effect?

do you get a lot of furring in your kettle?

Nope, use hot tap water and that's clear

it's usually due to hard water. try a rinsing agent like fenwicks bobby dazzler or devil and see if that helps.

how expensive is it? and is it a direct replacement for the hose or is a dilute mixture?

[Bibio]

its a pour over or pressure washer thing. haven't checked the price of devil in ages as i use bobby dazzler and that's about £10 but makes about 30ltr.

if your using a hose to rinse down then you would be better off with an inline filter think they are about £30 on your hose but should last a year or two. councils all over the country are using silly amounts of chlorine in the water to meet regulations in water quality.

Ahhhhhh makes sense! Super thanks for the help Bibio!
