Too right, it’s going to get a good lathering.

Used that stuff for a good few years now, it even kept my Suzuki DL650, bike I just got rid of when I managed to do me thumb in, pristine and for a Suzuki with the finish of a chocolate fire guard that was impressive.

So great suggestion and highly recommended.

Excellent - glad it's as good as described/expected!

Well had a good look see and that nice man, a very nice man, bike social did some good testing and I must say it looks a great product.

I’ve got some ACF 50 to use up but I will deffo get some next time.

Thanks for the tip.

I've used "XCP The Green One" for a few years now and it's as good as anything else that I've come across. It used to be £5 for the hand pump bottle in B&Q and I'm still on the second bottle that I bought initially. I don't cover the bike in it, just judiciously apply to the proper areas. Good for keeping chains rust free on traditional bikes.

Edit - just noticed that it's currently £4 at B&Q. That's a bargain!

Off I will travel to B&Q tomorrow for a look see.

Is the green one the one for bikes?

Cheers

Ian

I don't think that any products like these are bike specific. The "Green" simply refers to the bio nature of it's production. They have a video explaining it all.
