Re: Hein gericke GEL cleaner
Yep- seems very good folks. Bought the last bottle from Glasgows shelf on Saturday. When cleaning, I was very careful (worried!) not to leave it on too long in case it got at anything in a bad way. This was driven by the fact that the bottle emphasises very strongly about not leaving on too long and rinsing very thoroughly etc.
Well it was all going great and here's me thinking it works wonders on me black k5 wheels........ cutting through all that chain lube etc, when - wait! What's all this then? The paint looks dull in parts - is it eating through it to the metal below?........... ...No - turns out to be caked on brake dust (the shame of it). I've not had a chance to give the bike the good clean it deserves until now. Anyway, the rear wheel wasn't too bad, but I was looking close and spotted it. The front however, as you'd expect, had a fair old accumulation up the leading edge of the spoke. I'll tackle that another day. Looks like good stuff at a cheapo £2.99. We'd been using Autoglym at considerably more pennies for the last two years. My ride is looking lovely and shiny once again. Just in time for my advanced test on Sunday. After that, it's a new set of tyres, since the rear has been square for ages and is approaching the wear markers after 8000m plus. Garry |

Re: Hein gericke GEL cleaner
Hey HG peoples why does the Pro Sports jacket zip not match the trousers. I got some and the jacket zip is about 50mm longer than the trouser zip? Surely they should meet up eh?
