Title: DETAILING a Motorcycle
Post by: cintronr on June 19, 2015, 12:36:26 PM
Hello all,

Just wanted to see if we can get together and share tips and tricks for detailing a motorcycle. I am not taking about a simple wash. Detailing is so much more. I detail cars but, Motorcycles are so much more difficult IMO to keep show room ready. Let's do this, detailing here we come!

I usually take all plastics and parts that can be taken off and/or apart, take wheels off . . .

All our need is time, water, soap, towels, wax, and a Frank Sinatra CD.

Beer is optional.
