Scotoiler 365....

Hi All...

I'm an ex SV650 owner but remember this being a helpfull place so thought I'd ask on here....

I wana try and prevent my bike rusting away over the winter and have been reccomended this scotoiler 365 stuff....who uses it and how good is it?

Many thanks

dunno? but, most peeps seem to go for acf50 (?)

I've herd of that but on doing a bit of research the scotoiler stuff has been well documented in MCN and BIKE.

Also both local bike shops near where I work do not stock ACF50.

I use the ACF50 now but we did use the FS365.

The ACF50 does wash off in the rain, so you can treat your bike once with it and then not have to reapply on those minging wet winter days..

Does that apply to the 365 stuff? I'm not that technically minded!!

Sorry, Fizz, to avoid confusion, I take it you mean doesn't

Sorry for the confusion. The Scotoiler product you have to reapply after riding your bike in the rain as its water soluable so rain / wet roads break it down and it stops working.

The ACF50 you can spray on once and it doesnt wash off like the FS365 does.

Thanks for that - I thought it was AC50 so thats prob why I was struggling to find it! I will order some up now

Many thanks again!!

i have used the Scotoiler stuff and it seems ok, but saying that i tend nottotake the bike out in the rain. I use it in the summer as well, and ihave not had any rust come back at all.
