Shout laundry spray
I don’t know if I ever mentioned it on here or not but the stuff works wonders. You can buy it by the gallon at Walmart or the grocery store. I put it into a pump sprayer and add a little water to dilute it. It can be used straight though. I hose off whatever dirt and mud I can and then mist the whole bike with shout and let it sit for 5-10 minutes and then hose it off again.
I went riding Sunday and although it wasn’t terrible, the rims, tires, pipe, engine and under the fenders were pretty muddy. This is how it comes out and I didn’t touch anything with a rag or scrub brush. It makes the metal, plastic and rubber look like new and leaves no slippery film at all. If it’s really caked on old mud you’d have to wipe it with a rag but for the most part it’s no touch and makes cleaning the bike SO easy.

Re: Shout laundry spray
Great tip. Your garage is a little cleaner than mine.

Re: Shout laundry spray
Thanks Moonstomper. I got a #7 slide based on your readings and will try that out someday.
One thing to note on these pictures is that my phone camera adds gloss that’s not really there. In real life the tires look matte black. Not like they have armor all on them. Same with the gas tank and the garage floor.

Re: Shout laundry spray
Me too you guys! No shirt or shoes required. We got the house from one of the national “there are basically no options” builder in 2018. None of the paperwork said anything about this floor and I showed one up one day when it almost done and there was a guy mixing up the 2 part epoxy. I was already so excited for the 3 gar garage and that floor just put it over the top. Gas, oil, or brake cleaner doesn’t affect it at all. I always wanted a floor like that but would’ve never had the extra money or a completely empty garage long enough to do it.

Re: Shout laundry spray
If anything spills on that floor, don't let it set for too long. Mine bubbled up when some mineral spirits jug leaked and sat for a while.

Re: Shout laundry spray
Thanks for the info! I just went to the store and picked up some Shout and a couple spray bottles to try it out. I've been using Simple Green on the engine, but want to see how the Shout does.
