Every time I use it, it works good. I just put 1 cup full in a gallon of water in a pump up sprayer and spray the bike After I wet it down with a hose. Don't let the solution dry or it will streak. I use it all the time at least twice a week and the only time I had problems is when I just sprayed it on the bike without wetting the bike first, and mixing it too strong. Or a hot bike in the sun, where it dries out, no good. I bought 10 gallons of it to give to my friends here in Indiana. I was the guy that mentioned it on the forum weeks ago. The folks in Puerto Rico use it on multi-million dollar boats and the love it.. Dan
BTW, it does nothing to break dust. Wonder if it works on boat brakes

I'm setting here reading the back panel on the gallon I have, correction 6 gallons, they all say to dilute 1/4 cup in a gallon of water. Above the writing is pictures of a car,bike,truck,boat,kitchen and grills. As I stated, I use it at least twice a week in Puerto Rico on my ultra and it works, period. I wet the bike down when it's cold. spray with the solution from front to back, under the fenders, then hose it down. A blow dryer gets some of the water off, but most of the time I just ride it down the street and wipe off the excess drips.

I believe I was one of the first here to try it and I was impressed. Now granted, my scoot is never "filthy", but I am **** about keeping her clean. I use 8oz. to a gallon, in a sprayer, soak bike good and let sit for about 5 minutes, heavy rinse, micro-cloth dry or blow dry then micro drips. The bike looks newly waxed. It WILL NOT work on heavy road grime or brake dust without scrubbing, but the bugs and average road dirt melts away. It will leave a film if left to air dry, that's the carnuba in it I believe. All in all, I think it puts S100 to shame when used correctly.

You're right about that, it is easy to clean a clean bike. Like I said, I don't let mine get filthy....just the average road dirt, dust and bugs. But once it's clean it tends to stay that way longer and next bath it pretty easy. The stuff wont take off your wax either, that's a +. Seems like 50% have good luck with it and 50% not so good, strange indeed.
