Now I can actually get in the garage and have a small amount of free time, I thought its about time I got on with a few of my projects.
So its been a productive week
Tonight I made a start cleaning up the bike ready for its once a year outing . I'd put it away at the end of last year after the October Lincoln run and not even cleaned off the splatter
I started by cleaning up the exhaust (yes Nuggitt it IS your fault)
Whoa! Steady on there stiggy lad. I'm starting to feel guilty now because I haven't even looked under the bike cover to see if mines still there or not. For all I know there could be a pile of beer crates in place of it. Better get myself busy now you've made a start.
Bit of advice. Buy a good bed and a good pair of shoes, because if you aren't in one you'll be in the other.
I firstly tried astonish (a stainless cleaner from asda) It took the surface colouring off but left some stained patches. I then rubbed them out with 600 wet and dry and then used a sisal mop with cutting grase to bring up the dull shine...thats as far as i've got
I'll next use polishing compound on a stitched mop and finish with s soft mop and fine compound to bring up the lustre
