HYPER-BOY Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Muc Off is good stuff! - there is a competition for some here - but obvs you can buy it! http://www.msuk-forum.co.uk/topic/210914-competition-may-the-filth-be-with-you/#entry2205235 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitroholic Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Just use the cleaner. Damp the thing down...spray on....scrub a bit...and wash off. It degreases as well, so remember to re-grease bits that should be greasy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carpmart Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 After extensive field testing of Muc Off by myself, as good as it is, I prefer Rhino Goo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

autobutcher Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Bike shops, Halfords type shops are the usual places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rover Man Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 make sure you fully and i mean FULLY wash it of any raw alloy. Some one i know used it on a used once Hormann ht3 and didnt wash it off fully and it tarnished all the alloy. Made a 3k car look like a 500 quid ebay job.
