If you use prepsol before touch ups itll get rid of it quick smart. The bugs are easier to get off if you have it on there before hand

Sheen or equiv since my motocross days back in the 80s, not as a cleaner, but for the shine. It seemed important to get the plastics of a motocross bike as shiney as possible before racing it through the mud?

I've always used Mr Sheen on my bikes. It's great for getting chain gue off as well. Due to water restrictions it's the only way to clean the bike. I use it to get bugs off all the time, just coat it on, let it sit for a minute then wipe it off.

Water and a sponge for me.

Now that i have full comp. insurance i might try the Mr Sheen thing. Only cause i won't need to do the touch-up if required.

Mr Sheen is the go. Good for removing bugs and chain lube and cleaning visors.

Best thing about it is that its free! It doesn't come out of your bike gear budget, it comes out of the Mrs' grocery budget. :lol:
