The magic liquid in a bottle. The best cleaning agent known to man, besides a wife.
It's not going to have any wayward effects on bike plastics and whatnot, I trust? Doesn't seem to be a particularly harsh liquid, but still?
Doesn't play well with others

Personally, I use a bit of dishwashing liquid if I'm short on car cleaning liquid.
parting of the sensory
Jif has abrasives in it - DON'T use it on your plastics.
... and that's what I think.
Or summat.
Or maybe not...
Dunno really....

I've used Jif very successfully on a red bike seat. It removed all the imbedded dirt & grime and left it looking as good as new! I wish I had taken before & after pics.
There is no such thing as bad weather; only inappropriate clothing!

True! always use a product that is made for what I want to use it on... within reason. each to there own

Right, all I needed to hear, thanks!
Looks like I'll just need to use a bit extra elbow grease in cleaning the bike today instead.

Spend the dosh when Supercheap has a discount sale and buy up Meguiar's range of products ... they sure do the job when it comes to making your pride and joy all shinies and pretties ... my preccioussss ....

Whip it, whip it good!
Dont listen to these fools, Jiff is safe to use on any surface, I particularly recommend it for cleaning your more delicate skin areas, for extra efficacy apply with a wire brush

Calcium Carbonate I think is the abrasive part,Not good for plastics at all. Alot depends what you want to clean, if grime and grease I use a turps and wash off with mild detergent afterwards.
If just dirt, just use detergents.
Ive run out of fucks to give
Likes a good argument...
Dishwashing liquid is bad juju on any car that you have a wax on, strips it right back, agressive as all hell. Made this mistake on my accord and then almost straight off (probably because I park down at the port) the paint started to fault in a bunch of places. Still haven't got it all fixed.

Like those stupid window-washing fools at intersections who use dishwashing liquid in their stupid water bottles and ruin your paint work when it dribbles down!Happened to me years ago and I still haven't got over it!

Yeah, that's because of the dissolved salts in it. It's bad shit for paint jobs, as you unfortunately found out.

Yeah, I remember seeing one of those guys at the lights and wondering just how much damage they have indirectly done to the paintwork on how many different cars!Like those stupid window-washing fools at intersections who use dishwashing liquid in their stupid water bottles and ruin your paint work when it dribbles down!
KiwiRat: Yeah, it's just a pity I had to find out that way
