    hey guys , just started the big wash after trip to Darwin . the gurney and hot soapy water and polish didnt even "scratch the surface" of all the bug shit so i hit it with tar and bug remover and even the white walls !  verdict - its a bloody miracle !!!

    easiest way to clean white walls , and the chrome came up tops !  sure i still have some polishing to do but a few litres ( yes i had to use a few litres ) does in a few hours what polish wasnt moving at all. 

    bout to go out check the bike - hoping that the chrome aint peeling

    the first bottle was the Turtle brand , but then i ran out and used Bars bugs concentrate ( it is marketed for use in your windscreen additive - totally friendly to paint etc ) Both equally did the job .

    having used all sorts of various methods to clean ww's this past 3 yrs - this has to be the easiest by far . spray on , wait a few minutes and use a plastic pot scubber / sponge to simply scrub clean with no effort. then hit with gurney or soapy water . the chrome came up tops as well .

    I`ve always used WD40 and an old towel on chrome, paint and alloy.. the residue stops stuff sticking. Dust may be an issue if your a wee bit uptight.
