Fingernail and spit.

What kind of white spots?  Painters nearby?  =bedsheet over bike, secure with rubberbands.

Ever seen "There's something about Mary"? Yeah, same advice. Will prevent you creaming your pants when riding.


(sorry, couldn't resist.)

I get 'em too sometimes...  I figured it was bird shaZam!, since I work on the waterfront. :dunno_white:


Soaking 'em makes mine easier to get out...  And sometimes a toothpick works.

Do you use a cycle cover? I know the water repellent on mine will leave white spots on the seat.

Armorall will get rid of it.   But it will make the seat slippery, and trust me, that can be dangerous.

Might be better to use Turtlewax's Protectant 2001 (bright green bottle).
