Silicon spray

[avion]

For those of you using silicon spray to repel moisture, mud etc on you're bikes stay away from Q8.
It leaves and excess of oily residue with little shine.

I've tried a load of them and found the best to use is Holts. Doesn't hurt that it's one of the cheaper ones either.

I use the CRC 808 a lot but only for temporary lubrication
but I'll certainly keep the holts in mind for detailing work.
cheers

CRC makes some good stuff. We used to use it at work until a few years ago when the company signed a new purchase contract with another supplier. Wish we still had all the CRC products.

Yup, they certainly make a good range of products
Use to use the engine start (ether) every time I had to fire up my old david brown tractor.
