I am kind of a neat freak with my vehicles especially my bike.  I washed it yesterday, got caught in the rain today, so its gotta be washed before I ride again.  Kinda crazy but I like it clean.  Everyone knows how to wash a bike.  Soft rag, some turtle wax zip wash or whatever you like, and a little bug and tar remover or WD-40 to get the bad stuff off.  The problem for bikes with decals has been waxing them.  On most bikes with black plastic that is a problem as well because it fades.   Never fear there is now a good solution.  If you haven't bought some of the new Turtle Wax Ice, its time to try it out.  Its about 15 bucks in the southeastern U.S. but it works just like a wax but dries completely clear leaving no white lines around decals.  It can also be used on all the plastic.  Its almost like having Armor All and wax all in one.  If you try it you'll like it!  :thumb:

ugh.


Tried it.  Hate it.


Black Magic is where it's at.


Ice wax is OK for touch ups... and maybe as a second coat... but never as a cure all.

I've always liked eagle one products... and found for wax thier Nano wax was great on the bike, it also wont leave white residue behind.
