Daft Carbon Fibre Bike Cleaning Question

[ed_o_brain]

I'm wondering if Muc Off and the like are too harsh to use regularly with a CF frame?

Should I just use a bucket soapy water?

I think Muc Off would be too aggressive; I don't use it on any of my bikes anymore, I just use baby wipes.

Pledge or Mr Sheen are also excellent. I use Pedge and it brings my Ferrari Red and Black carbon frame up to a shine like nothing else.

The carbon is covered in a lacquer, so Muc Off isn't going to affect it.

What is wrong with soapy water? Ordinary washing-up liquid is all you need and a lot cheaper...

Scented or un-scented?

No, but cheapest scented are nice when sat outside in the warm sun pampering the dirty bits off your beloved

Truck wash and jet wash for on all the bikes, carbon, alloy and steelies.

7 years! Is that a forum record?! Some of us were still in our prime back then.

What made you check the date of the posts? I never bother unless the date is somehow relevant to the stuff being talked about. Wouldnt have noticed how old this thread is otherwise.

You would be surprised what a wipe can do!
