Well, just washed the RT in the pissing rain so it'll be clean and dry tomorrow do I can ACF50 it like a good-un!

Hope the stuff is as good as its made out to be. Any one else used it?

Thinking of doing the S too as its nice and clean, and it seems no one wants it so I'll be enjoying it for a bit longer.

Great stuff for protecting the metalwork from winter salt and grime. Dont use on disc brakes or tyres.

Good at protecting alloy, but mostly you are using on PAINT.

Use a clear, hard cavity wax on painted alloy, and save the acf50 for the bits that really deserve it.

The makers must be delighted when people empty a couple of cans all over their bike

Only need to get a very thin layer on the protected parts to work. Like a mist or brush on. Very good on metal but keep away from brakes.

Its very good stuff, but its best properties are as a winter/salt corrosion protection, it may be just as good to use a thin layer of WD40 in the summer months and save the good stuff for the winter months,?

As has been said, if you are going to use it use it sparingly, a little goes a very long way, don`t make the first timers mistake of slapping it on thinking it will be better, all that does is attract road crap from miles around...
