  hey, you mean you immediately apply autosol or braso and just wipe? don't work that way one lerr, must leave for a while for the chemical to react one. I did sience project on this topic before and if really cannot, some brands of toothpaste also works.... if you dun believe, try all 3 (autosol, braso, toothpaste) on some dirty coin, you'll know. =)

  One morto tiam uncle told me once tht they no need to use all those expenssive "car soap" wan. Believe it or not, the best he said is our hair shampoo. Besides being cheap, easy to get, nice fragrant, well, you also make your bike same smell as you...hahah.
  washing bike i think most important is that make sure wat ever cloth or sponge used must be clean, no debris especially sand, or else will cry after washing, this one confirm arr

  wah lan got ppl use zaino ah, ay i also wanna use leh, i hear the effects damn power ah.
  use liao damn smooth and shiny ah.
  
  last time used to wash bike once a week. later become once per 2 weeks, then once per month. then become twice in 6 months hahahahaha.
  
  we can spend 5-6 hours washing our bike ah.
  use diesel wash the chain and rims, later use soap wash off the diesel. then pour water over the whole bike, use sponge and soap wipe, then use clean water wipe.
  later dry liao then polish it.
  then apply lubrication (for moving parts).
  after that apply chain lube and let the bike sit over night (or over morning haha).
  
  got 1 fren more terror, the fairing take out and wash seperately one.
  
  got once wash till got a QX come, somemore not at night ah, bloody 8pm like that only. but then we quite noisy lah, fren just buy hornet we there ramming his bike haha.
  
  wash bike best got a portable radio, otherwise abit sian also. too bad you all stay chap pa lang one, if not can wash together.

  Hi there,
  
  Zaino is really an excellent product. I use it for my parents' cars and it really shines and it maintains for ard 6 mths.
  
  Using on a bike is a bit overkill but after washing, it leaves a nice shine and the surface is glossy and smooth. My bike is even shinier than some new bikes

  Hi there,
  
  It is available only through this local website at http://www.cazcomp.com Your email should address to Chandra, a real friendly guy.
  What you need to buy is essentially Z1, Z2 and Z7. I wax the bike once every 3 mths but I might change to once every 6 mths as the wax really last a long time.

  Hi there,
  
  You can go to Harley Davidson Singapore and buy S100 Finishing Restorer. Should be able to restore the shine to your chrome. Not cheap though. Looi's Motor might have it for cheaper.
