How often do you clean/wash/detail your bike?

Listen, dick, I'm just looking for some opinions on the shit. I've never used one.

Not bad. Thats gonna take some time to do the whole rig.

Do that and then wax it. You really won't notice a difference from just using the bar. After the wax, it should shine real nice though. Not sure if those built-up particles will have long-term affects on your paint though. I'm curious to see how long it'll take before it starts feeling like sand paper again? Proly not too long.

I'm thinking about that Mequiars Tech Wax. You ever used it? I've got a Mequiars Cleaner wax that I use now.

I use Tech Wax 2.0. It's their latest product. I just waxed my truck the other day, and the bike about a week earlier. Works good. Holds the water beading quality for a decent amount of time, too. I also use their latest qucik detailer, "Quick Detailer Plus", or something like that. It's in a black bottle now. They added wax-like properties in it. It doesn't leave a residue or anything still. I only use McGuires products. I tried the Eagle One QD and I had to work harder to get rid of the residue it left. Wasn't bad, but Mcguires has it beat.
