Bike Detailing
 
I know there are probably many threads about polishing etc but i just thought i had to comment on the finish i have acheived.
Those that have seen the bike have commented on how good it looks however i have just polished the bike with Meguiars polish, their 3 step system. The first is a paint cleaner, removing any imperfections in the finish. The 2nd, is a polish which creates a deep shine. The 3rd is a Carnauba Wax which leaves an amazing finish. It now has a wet look shine.

I bought it for the car which is black but havent go round to that yet and im amazed at the quality of finish which it has given the bike. Its £25 for the 3 products but well worth it if you want a lasting finish to the bike.
