Muc-Off Bike Protect Alternatives

[Sbloomer]

I am currently using Muc-Off Bike Protect as a post wash treatment, and it works pretty well.

 

But it gets pretty expensive when you have 4 bikes to do.

 

Are there any cheaper alternatives that people use to treat their bikes post wash?

Castrol DWF is what I used to use on the motorbikes when living in Dbn, quite a bit cheaper

[anybody seen george?]

I use normal car wash soap that contains polish to wash my bike. (Rally makes a nice one. Buy a jug of 5l.

Then I use car polish to polish the frame (the thick kind not the thin liquid)

For "treating" bolts I'll use normal furniture polish. As I only want a small protective coating to clear the water not a penetrating lube.

I use this and at R20 I’ll keep using

I love the NAM product series - https://spokerite.co.za/product/nam-bravo25-bike-wash-1l/

 

Blue for the wash

 

Pink as a degreaser

 

 

MOST IMPORTANTLY - take 60 seconds and wipe down the bike with a damp rag, using the WHITE Nam bike polish !!  This protective layer prevents the muc from sticking to the frame !!  The next wash is a breeze.

Where is that from?

 

Also is that Clean Green stuff worth using? Looking for something to use other than the Sportsmans / Mucoff to slot into a spray bottle.

That's great. Do you know the name at all? I'm heading down that way later this afternoon and would love to give them one of my hard earned Randellas.

For the wash I use prepsol.

Muc - off is a rip off.

 

Namgear bike wash

Chain cleaner

and bike polish

spray on let dry and then rub off. Bike shines and dirt doesn't stick to it easily.

Wynns dash is similar and available in larger packs.

 

But Muc off.... Never again.

I just have my bike wrapped in Invisframe and it's protected from day one.

We spray the NAM Polish onto a rag -

 

 

Then wipe the bike with the damp rag -

Hi T-Bob

Price on that?

I've had about 90 percent of my new bike wrapped in BikeShield- works but was too expensive imo
