    I usually dont recommend products, but this stuff actually works very well. It sprays on thick and doesn't run down the fairings, and it leaves the bike shinny and dry when wiped clean.

    plus its got this cool label !:biggrin:

    I have heard that dish soap can damage your paint job, but I use it myself for the initial wash. I just did a 3 step wash with meguires today and my bike is shinier than it ever has been since I bought it.

    No dish soap used here.. Cute, bet it was the label that got you to try it huh?
    While on the subject of cleaning, whats folks using in place of the Honda cleaner now that it's off the market?

    actually.......... i bought it cause it was on the clearance shelf at the local mom-n-pop hardware store for $1 a bottle. Not expecting much,....... but for a buck i couldnt go wrong. I will buy it again no matter what the price. Ive used the Meguires, Eagle 1, ProLong, and this stuff i liked the best.

    actually I just used the last of my pro honda spray polish today. last I looked, it was still being sold (even in cali) at my local dealer... even thought it said on the can, not for sale in CA... next time I get down there, I'm buying some more if they have it...
