kawapower Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 (edited) There are places on the bike you just can not get to no matter how you try, you can see it but you can not get it, is there a dissolving spray that you can leave on for a minute or so then hose off. Product name and where it can be bought from would be much appreciated(Home works, Tesco etc. Cheers. Edited May 19, 2012 by kawapower Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VocalNeal Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 There are many commercial motorcycle cleaning liquids. DIY? If you have a spray bottle which can be purchased at Tesco.? Dissolve laundry detergent in a 1 or 1.5l bottle of warm water until it reaches a saturated solution. I.e no more powder will dissolve. Leave the bottle overnight and decant the liquid into a new bottle leaving any solids behind and spray that where you think you cannot reach. Bottle brushes, toilet brushes and tooth brushes etc also help reach those awkward places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VocalNeal Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 Its a slow process and you can dissolve more than you think about 6 or more tablespoons per litre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
