should wipe off straight after and not ride it on the road with the droplets of rain... dust/dirt watever on the road will stain ya bike when the water dries... or if ya leave it to dry in the sun, will have water marks...

Just coat your bike with wax and buff it until it shines. Nothing complicated here lah jeffrey83. You don't have to be a rocket engineer to figure out on how to polish your bike. :goodluck:

Don't think so.. Cause those high grade wax, e.g. Autoglym, 3M contains special ingredients that will protect your paintwork from rain or shine..

there are some wax in the market which states that they will remove fine scratches..

how they do it?

they remove a fine layer of ya paint when ya wax.. so you will see a bit of ya paint on the cloth when ya wipe off.. not recommended for regular use..

Use it regularly and your bike will change colour to metallic gray cos you are actually scraping your bike colour off ever so slowly and has already hit metal... :cheeky:

I only wipe my swingarm clean every time I park my bike with a wet cloth that I hide somewhere in my carpark. :smile:
