Killer cleaner
OK so I've had a red stain on the RMZ since I took it to Uwharrie National forrest last December. I mean I pressure wash it, purple power it...doesn't matter....it's red.
The previous owner of the DRZ400E I just bought, amazed me with such clean bikes.....and I asked WTH he used. He turned me onto HAWKEYE Brite 1 You can only GET it at NAPA in Hickory, NC though as it's a local to that area chemical company that makes it :td: But the chemical company itself is Here if you can get ahold of anyone Anyway...the P.O. of the DRZ was up there last monday and I asked him to get me some. I used it yesterday and HO LEE CRAP whatta difference Here is the frame where I started on the lower part http://www.troybaker.com/dirt/hawk1.jpg Next, the radiator and frame BEFORE: (yes this is AFTER a pressure wash and purple power) http://www.troybaker.com/dirt/hawk2.jpg And AFTER http://www.troybaker.com/dirt/hawk6.jpg http://www.troybaker.com/dirt/hawk7.jpg http://www.troybaker.com/dirt/hawk8.jpg And I'm talking NO EFFORT. Spray it on...wait till it foams white (3-5 seconds) pressure wash off. The WHEEL hubs were a MAJOR change...though the pics don't do it justice Before: http://www.troybaker.com/dirt/hawk3.jpg After: http://www.troybaker.com/dirt/hawk4.jpg I LOVE this stuff!!!! |
Looks like awesome shit. I'm gonna hunt some down, thanks.

1. How does it hold up to plastics?
2. Environmentally friendly when washed off in the yard? I REALLY want some as CycleRanchMX.com is a regular place we ride, PACKED with red clay/sand mix which stains everything including head pipes to a nice burnt UT Longhorn orange. |
Spam.
All I see is a bike with one dirty side and one clean side. :skep: |

I was sure to dilute the bike, drive and yard with PLENTY of water when I rinsed it. Quote:
I didn't expect it to work SO well. So I never bothered to take before pics of the first side :lol: |
Is there any online source for this stuff?

I do see "Updating store, ability to purchase will be soon." on there. Maybe someday. :) I suppose if it's only good on AL, it's not much use to me. My frame is steel. |
Yeah the phone call is really the only way (that I know of) right now.
They're a small company. But the stuff is magic. But you could STILL benefit with your hubs and engine! Honestly the HUBS were why I got it. The rest...well, I COULD have used a scotchbrite pad and cleaned, but those hubs are a BITCH to clean, and I HATE having crappy looking wheels, even though I know I spend a boatload of time cleaning them. Some people think I'm nuts for cleaning a friggin DIRTBIKE the way I do, but I can't stand having anything in the garage looking all dirty or half-ass. Plus it makes me feel pretty good when I unload my bikes, and I get people walking over to look at them, telling me I have nice bikes, and asking if they're new. To me....It's either done RIGHT, or whole-assed :lol: |
