Hey guys welcome to the Detail Garage!
So today we have some fun stuff for you.
Chemical Guys is all about a lifestyle.
We're all about keeping things clean but not only our cars.
Our cars are mainly what we focus on but we are about everything.
We're about motorcycles, bikes and even marine.
So today we want to show you some cool new products that we have and they are for our motorcycles.
Whether you're riding a motorcycle as a daily rider or just taking it out on the weekends
to go up in the canyons we have every product you'd need to make it look good.
Whether you clean your bike everyday or just once in a while.
We are going to show you how to clean up a few bikes.
Today I'm going to start off with the Harley.
The Harley went for a bike ride to Laughlin and from here in L.A. it's about a four hour drive.
The ride was very dirty and dusty and it has been sitting in our shop for a little while
and the owner just hasn't had time to clean it.
So we're going to show you how to not only wash but also clean the leather on the Harley.
So lets go over and check it out.
As you can see the Harley is dirty.
It has a lot of dust, dirt and a big thing about washing your bike a lot of times it's
scary to wash a bike because there is so many exposed areas on the bike.
So what people do is they kind of treat it like when you do an engine bay detail.
Their scared to touch anything, their scared to use any free flowing water and when you
do wash the bike, the owner of this bike tries to do it with free flowing water but finds
himself always trying to get away from areas that might be damaged by water.
So what we have is our Full Cycle Waterless Wash and Wax.
So it's a waterless wash that you don't have to use any water and it also has wax in it.
We're going to clean all of the areas that are painted, plastic, chrome, wheels and anything
on the exterior that needs to be cleaned except the leather.
Your bike is exposed to so much because it is out and you're probably not just riding
it for a few hours.
Like I said this was out for a long ride.
So we're going to use the wash and wax to clean it and also since it has the wax it
won't scratch the surface.
It has synthetic clay and wax to leave a protective barrier and what that's going to do is take
away the dirt and contaminants from the surface and make a protective wax barrier so it won't
scratch when you're wiping with a towel.
So I'm going to show you how to do this.
I'm going to start off with this area so that you can
see and there is a lot of dust.
Disregard the leather which we are going to clean separately.
All you have to do is spray and you don't have to worry about getting it on the surrounding
pieces because it is safe to get on paint, chrome, plastic and wheels.
Just wipe in one direction.
Then I'm going back over it with the clean side of the towel to buff off the wax that
is left behind.
So you're washing and waxing all in one step.
Also you don't have to worry about the plastic gauges because it is also safe for that.
If you do have metal pieces and you need something to restore the finish that may be oxidized
or fading we also have a metal polish for the bike.
I'm flipping to a clean side of the towel you want to make sure you always use a clean side.
You can use most microfiber towels that we carry.
We use the Workhorse because they are the best at regular maintenance cleaning especially
after a full wash.
Now the great part about using a waterless wash and wax like Full Cycle is you don't
have to worry about covering up all the exposed areas you don't want to get wet.
You can wash your bike at any time and you don't need access to free flowing water.
So if you want to go out for a ride in the morning you can get the wash done faster.
You can also spray it onto the towel if you don't want to spray it on the surface.
As you can see I'm using it on the metal pieces as well.
It wipes right off.
Later I can go over this with a metal polish to really shine the metal but this is at least
removing any contamination or dirt that was on the bike from the ride.
So now the bike is cleaned.
We did all the exterior pieces painted, chrome and plastic that were covered in dirt.
So it's looking great and the next thing I want to do is address the leather.
Now the leather if you take a look it has a lot of dirt and dust which you usually won't
see on a daily driver but this did just come back from a long trip and it went through
the desert so of course it has a lot on it.
The product we're going to use here is our Moto Leather.
The Moto Leather is a cleaner and protectant in one.
So it's going to clean and condition in one step.
The Moto Leather the great thing about it is the one thing you're looking for in a leather
conditioner when you're riding is something that is going to be dry to the touch that's
not slippery or greasy but you want something that is going to protect.
This bike is out all the time he actually rides all the time usually every weekend and
sometimes as a daily driver.
So he wants to make sure it is protected, looks deep and rich and also dry to the touch.
It's pretty easy to use.
I'll use the Workhorse Tan Microfiber Applicator Pad.
I just did two stripes on here and I'm just going to apply it very lightly and as you
can see it not only bringing back that rich black leather look but it's also removing
and cleaning all the dust that was on it.
You can see that a little bit goes a long way.
Just two stripes of product on the applicator and I'm able to do this whole seat.
I'll grab a Tan Workhorse Towel and wipe it.
It's dry-to-the touch and you can feel there is no residue left behind so when hes riding
he won't slide off.
It's going to protect the leather but also protect him while he is riding.
So I'll move on to the saddle bags and you can see the before and after.
Not only can this be used on the leather pieces on your bike but it can also be used on any
of your leather gear.
Another good thing about a leather protectant like Moto Leather is it also has the UV protection
because like I said you are out riding and here in California or at least in L.A. we
get a lot of sun so riding is something that is usually done all year round so what ever
the season we are out riding.
We get a lot of sun here.
So if you want the saddle bags to look a little more rich you don't have to wipe it down with
a towel because it will still dry for a dry-to-the touch feel.
It might not be as dry as your seat but it will still look deep and black.
So the last part of the leather is this saddle bag and you can see I've already removed a
lot of the contamination and dust so I'm going to use the clean side so you can see how much
grime really comes off.
It's cleaning and protecting in one step so in case you wanna hit the road in a hurry
wiping down your bike should be a fast and easy task with our new product.
There you have it.
Now we're finished with the leather.
We washed the bike and we did that pretty quickly.
So this is our new Moto Line of products you can use them on your daily driver such as
this Harley or street bike or Honda Grom or Ruckus it doesn't matter what you have we
like to give you the product to make it look clean and great.
