MUC OFF & BIKE SPRAY - SV650.org

26-03-05, 10:03 PM

I know that this has been posted before but, I spent the morning cleaning my bike and tried MUC OFF for the first time. I have tried many cleaners before but wow what great stuff cleaned loads of the engine components with it and the dirt and grease just fell away before I even brushed and sponged it.

I then used some Bike spray in a black can. All you do is just spray the whole bike excluding the discs and wipe down with a duster. It forms a laquer and makes the bike just gleam, it also acts as a water repellent.

Well chuffed.

P.S Did'nt even need to bother waxing.

Hi,
Would be nice to know what the stuff in the black can is though ? Although I 'suspect' its silicone ?

Been using both for a couple of years now.

Good day all, might seem a git of a naive question but where might I be able to get some of this MUC OFF?

Will this stuff clean up my downpipe as it looks pretty bad and needs a good clean on my naked SV.

You'll need an abrasive metal polish to get the rust off of the downpipes.
You can get this stuff from most bike accessories shops, bike dealers or online.

Buy Muck Off from all reasonble bike shops...its pink.

Don't buy rival product Hope '**** Shifter' it is crap and leaves a white residue.

Halfords with Bike Huts in them sell Muc Off, it's really good. But i use Hein Gericke's "Blatant Knock-Off" which is much the same at a fraction of the price.

I've heard of some very results using Fenwick caravan cleaner.*

So I've got some.. I'll update everyone on how good it is, once the bike is dirty again.

*Note this is only on the cycling forums.. but Muc-off was originally a MTB cleaning product.
