Products for the Anal Retentive...
« on: June 30, 2011, 04:57:00 PM »
I'm always looking for products to better clean the bike, especially when on the road.  Ran across this product on Griot's Garage and thought I'd give it a try:  http://www.griotsgarage.com/product/car+care/car+washing/car+cleaners/speed+shine+maintain+kit.do

This stuff is the chits...easy on, easy off.  Lifts dirt off without scratching.  Perfect for quick detailing when on the road.  And I also thought all microfiber towels were the same...NOT!  The one's that come with this "kit" are the softest, most plush towels I have, and I've tried a bunch of them.  Great products!!

While I was at it, I ordered this to wash the bike...it kind of solves two problems at once.  The grill in the bottom of the bucket lets the heavy dirt settle so you don't pick it back up on your wash mitt, and the grill on the top lets you put the mitt somewhere other than down in the bucket when you're rinsing a portion you've just washed.  The mitts are great too...soft as a baby's butt and hold a LOT of liquid.  One for the bottom parts of the bike, and the other for the painted parts.  The wheels are sturdy and it rolls around with a push of the foot.  http://www.griotsgarage.com/product/car+care/car+care+kits/starter+car+wash+kit.do  The nozzle that comes with the kit is easy to operate with just your thumb and comfortable to grip.

Terry, I'm a Griot's Garage user.  Great stuff though not cheap.  I really like their Spray On Wax.  After washing the car or bike, you spray it on before drying.  Makes drying easier and refreshes the wax coat!    :2vrolijk_21:   :2vrolijk_21:

Ditto on Griots. Great stuff. Definitely agree on their microfiber towels; especially those blue ones. Great stuff
