washing a denim paint job
Hey everyone,
So I got my 2012 Iron 883 (or rather, my wife bought it for me ), and was wondering if all of you use official H-D cleaning and care products to wash your bikes. Specifically those with the matte black denim paint job. Or are there other cheaper, but just as capable products out there?
Thanks!

I use Harley Gloss on everything on my bike and I only wash it twice a year max. When I wash it, I just spray it down with simple green w/out diluting it. Without washing the simple green off, I wash the whole bike with a microfiber cloth in a bucket of dawn dish soap super bubbly. I start from the top and work my way down to the lower parts of the bike. I don't spray the paint with simple green though. Then I hose it off and dry. Then go over the pain with harley gloss and a microfiber towel. Takes about 20 minutes unless I let the simple green soak on the wheels and engine.

I usually just spray it with windex and rub it off with a towell, however if it gets really dirty I will hit it with a hose, dry it than apply windex ... almost had a heart attack yesterday because I went to apply windex on a towell only top realize my dad had used my moto towel to armorall the car ! I just hit it with the hose real quick and i Think all is good, however a frackin squirrel starting dropping **** on my bike, in th eend I figured those are enough bad signs to ot ride the bike that day hahaha
