I just spritz it with Windex every once in a while. I start the wipe-down with the mirrors and body panels. Then the Prima pipe and the rear tire hugger. Then the wheels (rims).
Every once in a great while, I hit the wheels and seat with Simple Green.

I wouldn't use Armor All or anything like it on my scooter at all. I wash my scooter pretty much the same as I wash the car: with a hose and a bucket with some carwash soap. I figure if it's okay to ride in the rain, it's okay to hit it with a hose.

McGuire's and a chamoise and lots or water. Or for a little touch up Windex and Viva towels. I love my Buddy <3

I use the do it yourself car wash sometimes. I use the pre-wash instead of the high pressure wash and the spot-free rinse, which is gentle. I usually have a microfiber towel in the Pet carrier that I can use to scrub off bugs.

Yeah, I have a can of that. It works pretty well but can leave things a little "streaky".ThreeSheets wrote:the best stuff for cleaning bikes, scooters, detail a spot on the car is stuff called Original bike spirits. best stuff on earth I swear!
Others have also stated their love of Lemon Pledge on the plastics.
I like the windex cuz I can just spray everything with it and wipe down with one rag. Simple Green when I need to cut through some grease like on the wheels.
I dunno. I don't clean mine as much as I used to but I get to park in a garage at home and at work so I'm pretty lucky.
