THE TOP 5 ESSENTIAL Motorcycle cleaning products Every motorcyclist NEEDS!

[@ChanakyanStudent7971]

Thanks for the handy guides on youtube for servicing the motos. Dealership services are too costly these days, and they steal fuel as well. Helpful for young people like me who live alone and want to get into biking as their principle means of transport.

Your motorcycles shine like a dressing room mirror, amazing!!!

[@michaelevans1658]

Been using the full Fillingham method for two years,it works so wont be changing.

[@TheTXRanger]

Happiness is opening the computer and finding not one, but TWO videos from Uncle Stu! Very timely video. My Interceptor is due for a "Full Fillingham", this weekend!

[@michaelevans1658]

On a different note uncle Stu, I have just fitted heated grips to my Triumph ,never would have plucked the courage up to do such a task without you inspiring confidence in me . This Saturday my first time servicing the Street twin oil ,filter, coolant change, and chain maintenance . Bike out of Triumphs so called warranty now so going to save some pennies. Ta very much.

Excellent. Thank you Stuart for bringing us up to date on your cleaning regime.

I have been, or was a great user of Solvo Autosol. This product has been about for years. First discovered it in the sixties. A must have metal polish for all the alloy 'bits' a Brit Bike had in those days....My Triton had polished alloy primary chain case, timing chest etc, alloy rims plus a few other minor parts.. before taking her to concentration I would spend hours cleaning, polishing.... all part of the ownership experience....Now I own a Triumph 'Striple the Autosol languishes in my tool chest, unused... there ain't anything to polish, except maybe the exhaust. And, because I live in España washing off road 'filth' isn't an issue.... Into the carwash to get rid of the 'dust' then a clean and shine. I discovered a waterless ceramic solution called 'Hybrid' its supposed to put a hard barrier on paint work, I still use Turtle wax for the final job...Bad weather is not the problem but the Sun is... A couple of days ago it was 40+ c... Greetings from España

Hello Stu, I sell stainless fasteners on the internet, before posting them out I polish them using 'Peek' metal cleaner, it gives excellent results, the only down side is that it has a strong smell of ammonia but I can live with that considering the results that it gives.

[@jamesridley8754]

Another great one stu. Seen all the individual video's, nice to see your top five in one.

[@themoog3889]

A well polished performance Sir! ... Ones cap is doffed ! 👍

This had me polishing ‘Calamity’ earlier 🙄 Whitby road today….Whoo hoo! 🏍

Thanks uncle Stu, I will now go and wash my old BMW

[@NirtyDigger]

BRILLIANTLY HELPFUL VIDEO THANK YOU SO MUCH SIR!🙌🙌

[@Brian-tb1zs]

Hey Stuart ! A professional Stuart wash and polishing would be a terrific 1st prize for any events you may have planned 🤔🤨 ! Great info, in the States I found Cycle Care Formula 22 to be a great grime remover from rims, underside of fenders. Thanks ⭐️

[@speedfinder1]

A much nicer spin on "Six of the best!"

[@KRAM-zb2vc]

Brilliant video as always Stuart and I use all of those products on your recommendation, and they do a fantastic job 😃👍🏻

[@davidyendoll5903]

Thank you for your efforts yet again . Solid advice

[@lesterwood4199]

Hi Stuart, your videos on Royal Enfield's are.fantastic and really informative, is there any chance that you could do a video on how to change a flat tyre on your Classic 500?

[@merlinch4256]

After having watched your video, I ordered the double speed wax. Well, Stuart, I've been able to see 3 things: 1. It is really economical, as one needs just a little of it to obtain... 2. ...a very good result, as my old BMW R 27 was shiny, afterwards. 3. I suspect there could be a link between "me using the wax" and the rain which came shortly after this, which helped me to state the wax was a very effective water repellent 😅 I'll add the bike is clean again, due to the wax efficiency. Thanks, Stuart 😊

[@haridasification]

Excellent cleaning masterclass

[@neilmc59MK]

Hi Stuart. Great video. Thank you. Now some questions. 1. Are there any changes you have made in your own cleaning routine as of 2024? 2. Silkolene wash off now comes out of the bottle as a a foam jet rather than a spray and so doesn’t cover a wide area. Any views on that? 3. Snow foam is popular nowadays. Is it any good? I’m approaching my first full clean on my RE Classic 350 Reborn after a month of ownership. To be honest, until now I’ve just hosed it down with cold water after short running in rides, to remove salt and the worst of the grime. And then dried it with a bike dryer. But I think a monthly Full Fillingham is required!

[@birbeck87]

Very interesting it’s good to get updates and reminders about good products thanks for the research 👍

[@louislucas9446]

Brilliant, as ever Stuart. Your channel is a veritable treasure trove…. Thank you 🙏👍😊

[@TheChrysler56]

Thanks for all those recommendations Stuart. I’m dead easy to buy for! Xmas coming! 😂

[@Nrgpack]

Yeah, the Bilt Humber Surfex HD contains: ALCOHOLS, C9-11 ETHOXYLATED 3-10 %, DISODIUM METASILICATE 1-3 %, TETRASODIUM (1-HYDROXYETHYLIDENE)BIS PHOSPHONATE 1-3 % and the rest is probably distilled water, so it's the good stuf :-). I will order it, coz that chain of your got really clean. I'm sorry for being a MSDS-junkie (it's a job related thing) :-) and thank you for the video Stuart!!!

[@stuartfillingham]

Don't apologies! nice to see someone make the effort!

[@robbateman7987]

It's been my APC and degrease of choice for some years now. Kind to nearly all surfaces, hot or cold. To be honest all Bilt Hamber products are V Good at what they do.

[@garywoodward6750]

Nice video Stu, I love the Meguiars polish too. Also found that the stainless steel covers plates on the Royal Enfield shine up amazing if you use a with cleaning/buffing wheel and paste.

[@ThiefOfNavarre]

I've been using Mother's mag and ally Polish. Might have to give this a try as it seems to be a bigger tub for similar money 👍

[@garybrown4854]

Ooooh have to told MUC OFF to do what it kinda sounds like LOL Like you I've tried many products over the years , I find they are a bit much of a muchness . I tend to use autoglym products mostly . Never used Bilt Hamber though and I've seen it used on other youtube videos along with their other products, they come highly recommended by others as well so I will probably change over to them as and when I run out of Auto glym products .

[@chaitanyadubey2914]

Thank you I'm always confused about cleaning 😅

[@juangomes21]

Hi! Just to thank you for your KZbin channel! Amazing 🤘🏼😎 I've just bought today a Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 and your videos is helping me in some products like mirrors or the maintenance products to use. I'll like to know if you use the Maguire's polish on Chrome too. Cheers from Madeira - Portugal.

[@stuartfillingham]

yes

[@juangomes21]

@@stuartfillingham so I can use it on the exhaust system too and then use the Silkolene Pro Prep?

Its my ruby wedding anniversary next week uncle stu, how about popping round and giving my bullet a full fillingham as a present 😉

Hi Stuart love your channel very informative. I’ve been using the McGuires on my thruxtons engine covers I love the stuff and it smells nice 😊. Iam not far from you iam near Stamford bridge. Keep up the great videos 😎

Ah yeah used to be a regular ride destination, but haven't been there for a while now!

[@robertadams4415]

As always thanks for the info

[@thibw638]

Hello Stuart, I’ve been following your advices closely to take care of my beloved interceptor and so far I am delighted. Big thanks to you! I have one question tho, about the silkolene pro prep, should I wipe it after spraying it? I have a somewhat greasy residue on my 650 and I don’t know if I should wipe it off or let it evaporate or something.. 😅

[@bayoutrapper]

What on earth can one do to help flaking chrome? I mean can anything be done to help the appearance, stop it, slow it down anything, besides buying new parts or rechroming? Triumph engine cases are pricey.

[@Mew-qn3xm]

Hey Stuart, I’ve used some bilt hamber uc anti corrosion but I have notice I got some on my tank, can the upol remove it?

[@nsw9154]

i started using Simonize Carnauba Liquid Wax because you recommended it and i am very satisfied with it, but just wondering if the BiltHamber Double speed wax is that much better than the Simonize i might get some for all my chrome as my Thunderbird LT has a lot of chrome lol Great video as usual Stuart

[@jojamison2062]

Hey Stuart, what is the best way to remove rough oxidation on engine casing?

@@stuartfillingham Thank you! For the disk part, the part that the disk brake holds, I have a little rust on that after the rain. How do you clean this and if you follow with disk brake cleaner, what disk brake cleaner would you recommend?

Ive recently subscribed to your channel and I like the cleaning and detailing videos. Just a couple of questions because I've watched a few of them now. Do you recommend GT 85 or silkolene And muc off or silkolene wash off. You've used all of the above but I cant work out what you use now. Thank you

which ever is easiest to obtain. both are excellent.

UPOL seems a bit pricey/hard to find in the USA... any alternatives?

Any pre paint panel wipe!

Can't find the Silkolene products here in the U.S. My current regiment is as follows...

You can get most Silkolene products in the US at Silkolenestore.com, they are a supplier based in Dallas.
