Motorcycle care – step-by-step instructions
High-pressure cleaning & hand washing
- Remove coarse dirt with a high-pressure cleaner. Keep a minimum distance of 50 cm from sensitive parts (bearings, seals, electronics).
- Spray Supreme Motorcycle Cleaner onto the cold, dry surface, spread with a brush and let it act for 1–2 minutes.
- Gently rinse off with the high-pressure cleaner.
- Wash the motorcycle with Motorcycle Wash (Bike Bath) and the Waschpudel. Two-bucket method: one bucket with clean water for rinsing, one bucket with Bike Bath.
- Rinse thoroughly with clean water. Dry carefully with the Ultra-Dry.
Hand polish & wax
- Clean the paint surface thoroughly and dry completely (as described under hand washing).
- Apply Cleaner Fluid Regular with a polishing sponge in horizontal or vertical motions.
- Wipe off with the Micro-Fluffy. Then apply a thin layer of Bike Sheen wax with an applicator.
- Let cure for 10–15 minutes, then buff to a high gloss with a clean Micro-Fluffy. Do not press too hard.
Optional: Additionally seal the wax layer with Lotos Speed or Keramiq9.
Rim cleaning
- Remove coarse dirt with a high-pressure cleaner.
- Spray cold rims with Wheel Spray Forte.
- Let act for 1–2 minutes. Spread with a soft rim brush and loosen brake dust. Wheel Spray Forte turns violet as a working indicator.
- Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry with the Ultra-Dry.
Optional: Seal the rims with Autobahn PTFE wheel wax for easier future cleaning.
Cleaning matt paint by hand
- Remove coarse dirt with a high-pressure cleaner. Keep a minimum distance of 50 cm from sensitive parts.
- Spray Supreme Motorcycle Cleaner onto the cold, dry surface, spread and let it act for 1–2 minutes.
- Rinse gently.
- Wash the motorcycle with Motorcycle Wash Opaque and the Waschpudel. Use the two-bucket method.
- Rinse thoroughly and dry carefully with the Ultra-Dry.
Pre-treatment & wax for matt paintwork
- Clean matte paint with Motorcycle Pre-Cleaner Opaque to remove old sealants, contamination and oil traces.
- Apply a thin layer of Bike Sheen Opaque wax with an applicator.
- Do not let the wax cure – buff gently with the Micro-Fluffy. Do not press too hard.
Optional: Additionally seal the wax layer with Lotos Speed or Keramiq9.
