I started using this for the bike
CRYSTAL-GLO® Motorcycle Care Products Starter Kit / Gift Set

And this for the tires
303 Products Inc.: 303 Aerospace Protectant

I also use Extreme Simple green to degrease

Re: What products Do You Use To Detail Your Bike

when I use the spray and rinse stuff I prefer bike brite over S100 doesn't leave the film like S100. Then I use pig snot or maguiers spray and wipe detailing spray. Works just fine.

Re: What products Do You Use To Detail Your Bike

Well, I guess I'm the first one with denim paint on here! Anyways, I use Brawn Glass Cleaner with Ammonia for 2 reasons: 1- it's cheap (like me) and 2- HD says to use an ammonia based cleaner on denim paint. It cleans everything pretty well. Bugs and tar require a little extra work but not enough to worry about.

Are you saying no water hose when you are actually "washing" your bike ?

Re: What products Do You Use To Detail Your Bike

I tried a new product a couple days ago and was pleasantly surprised. I tried ICE. It goes on really easy and wipes off the same. I found that if you accidently get some on your trim, it doesn't leave the ususal film. on it.
