Wax & Polish in a can
« on: February 23, 2014, 04:04:51 PM »
Approx. $15.00 a can.

Needs to sit for a while to soften bug guts etc.  No good on grease/oil etc, but that stands to reason.

Leaves screen little streaky (not our Streak) if not totally removed with a micro fibre cloth.

But makes the paintwork shiney and we all know someone called "Shiney"

At my age " getting lucky" is remembering what I came in the room for ;)

When we get to your place next month I would think our bike will be really really dirty Abe  :think1 Chris said he would be happy to allow you to demonstrate how good it is on our bike while he guards the fridge.   :hatwave

Thank-you Sicman for caring about my fridge and its contents, now get back on track with this thread you three, or there will be spanks.  :well                         :crackup
Happy to try this product on a black bike, but it is dirty in colour to start. (bazinga, 15-love)

I bought mine from MCA Liverpool, as it was next to Jaycar, where I looked at their working LED driving lights etc.

It's $5 less than the FW1 a few of us use- also a waterless cleaning waxer.
However FW1 also removes grease and oil.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

Biggles, I thought the FW1 was around $30.00 a can??

Yes I agree, seeing your bike before and after your arrival at Middleton, boy, big difference (for the better)

It's negotiable.
The sellers are all franchisees, and you can haggle a deal.  I go for 4 cans for $80 and you can keep the soft cloths.
I get microfibre cloths 5 for $3.50 from ALDI.
