I like the thing about the duct tape. very good. For me, on engine parts near the chain oven cleaner is a god send. need to be careful with it though.

That bike is one I bought cheap and did up at home. Don't know how much time I spent on it though. I was gonna do bike valeting as part of my business but insurance is to much :(

No not really cos the polish/wax will protect it, make it easier to clean the next time and prevent it getting to cruddy :wink:

I'm thinking of ways of doing bikes, may involve a disclaimer.
