Is Muc off the best to clean your Bike, or what do you use?

I use muc off but I dilute it a bit. I am cheap like that.

 

[Randochap]

Car soap. Buff w/ Bike Lust.

 

[Dave5N]

Fairy liquid. Muc off for the chain ATM as I bought a job lot cheap.

 

[palinurus]

Mixture of car shampoo and that Fenwicks (FS1?) bike wash concentrate.

I use the shampoo (or sometimes washing up liquid if I run out) to clean muddy bikes and the Fenwicks stuff for the greasy crap that gets on my commuter bike.

I use fenwick, its great for dislodging dried dirt as well as grease/oil marks. and when money's tigh... cheap hair shampoo...but never washing up liquid, it contains high levels of salt.

BTW, no high pressure hose, especially near bearings. Use fine spray if you must. I just refill the bucket w/ plain water and gently rinse.

It has a little salt. I use 10-15ml of Fairy in 5-10 litres of water. Doesn't require a Degree in Chemistry to know that it's not exactly the Dead Sea in there.

Don't you rinse the soapy water off anyway?

Although, of course, I do have one.
