1st clean after winter
 
Hi , last October I cleaned my XTZ and then gave it a coat of ACF50, to-day is the 1st time I have cleaned it since. I know in South Yorkshire we have had less salt spread than usual and I have resprayed it a few times but I am well pleased to say the Ten as cleaned up very well. It is the 1st time I have used ACF50 and must admit as the grime built up I worried what was going on under the filth but all is well.

I also sprayed up with acf 50 in October and didn't clean it again until march.

I missed the two bolts on the number plate with the acf50, they got very rusty. But the rest of bike was perfect. It was a risk and I was worried as it got dirtier and dirtier. I was relieved to see it unaffected.

Saved a lot of colds hands and wet feet on dark winter nights.

Hi I just thought I'd better mention in case anyone starts using ACF50 DON'T get it any where near the brakes. This stuff runs and creeps for days and centrifugal force will throw it from hubs to disc's and rims to tyres.
Take care Steve.
