How do you determine if you have a Denim finish?

My color is: Mysterious Red Sunglo/Blackened Cayenne Sunglo



What do u think of this cleaning technique:

I don't believe you have denim paint. I have seen Windex recommended on here several times. I just use the denim cleaner that Harley sells or wash it with soap and water.

Name of the color has denim or satin, somewhat similar, in it.

AFAIK the moco identifies their paints with the denim suffix. Black Denim, Sand Camo Denim (my fav), White Hot Denim, etc. I use Sparkle window cleaner and some ProtectAll. Easy to clean.

Your's is most assuredly NOT a denim paint. Give it a good wax job and you'll see.

What he said OP. You do not have denim paint. FWIW for those with...I'm going to Invisible Glass without ammonia after I finish off the HD denim cleaner my wife bought for me...

As far as denim cleaning, when HD first introduced the paint option, the owners manuals actually recommended Windex with ammonia. But then they manufactured their own HD brand denim cleaner and changed to recommending their own product. They both work the same for quick cleanups.

Interesting about the "Denim" being ID within the name, certainly makes sense.

Frigin salesman, told me that I have Denim and only use HD's brand denim cleaner. Thought he was speaking with fork tongue

Denim is a flat or satin looking finish.
