Ok. I know alot of you on here got some sparkling clean down to the nitty gritty quads. So give it up, what do you use?? I want something thats good for taking grease off and brake dust like around the chain area and disk and caliper area and skid plate. Whats good to use that gets the job done???

Simple Green is a amazing. Another one I used on the engine is Greased Lightning.

as everyone else said....SIMPLE GREEN.....I use it to wash mine and found that if i spray it on and let it sit then rinse it off it takes everything off even the dirt that alwasy come back.

I don't know what kind of luck people are having with Greased Lightning, but I haven't had good luck with it. I got some on my aluminum wheels and it turned them white. Took a whole lot of elbow grease and Mother's. DON'T USE IT!!!

simple green, do not get greased lightning on nerfs, bumpers, rims etc. It will tarnish it! :huh :o

After you use the simple green,dry it off and spray everything down(except seat and grips)with Son of a Gun.It will make even the dullest plastic look like new.Don't forget to wipe off the excess after a few minutes.
