Through the venture with my toy hauler project I have used several different things to achieve the goal Simple Green and 3m adhesive remover mostly. I have to tell you about a product I found this weekend that was absolutely amazing. IT is called Motsenbocker's Lift Off http://liftoffinc.com/products.htmI went looking for more 3M adhesive remover and Home Depot no longers carries it or didn't have it at the time. So I gave this stuff a shot and I have been very impressed. It is no where asagressive as the 3M and worked very well at removing adhesive and grease. |

I read in Dirt wheels mag that the Mudzilla team sprays their plastics with Pam before they get dirty, and it just hoses right off, I don't think that was what you were looking for but it could help in the future.

You may also want to try Long Haul truck degreaser. I get it from NAPA autoparts. It works great!
I used to use Purple Stuff as well. Its a little cheaper than Long Haul and works well too.

What I do now:
Hose my bike down
Spray the crap out of it with simple green
Hose it down
Spray it again with simple green
Then hose down again
Then spray wd-40 and scrub it
Then hose down
Then spray wd-40 all over the engine so it shines.
Looks new but it takes me about 1-1 1/2 to clean it all

well, to clean mud off i use water lol, i use a degreaser (not sure of which one at the moment) and a pressure washer, then when it's alll godd an dry i hit it with a good coat of wd40, supposedly lets mud "slip off" helps a little from what i've noticed, most mud comes off fairly quick with a hit of water

My dad and I use Purple Power the stuff is amazing.
Just spray it on, let soak for 2 minutes then rinse it off with the hose.

I use Grease Lightning in a lawn sprayer(it will dull aluminum) scrub & spray off, start engine to let it burn/dry off water,let cool, spray entire bike including plastics except brake pads & discs, w /seat off & plastic over grips with WD-40 or Silicone Spray.
Caos, the WD or Silicone justs leaves a thin film on everything & makes washing the next time easier & the bike looking new.

On white plastics I found that SNO-BOWL toilet cleaner works outstanding. Put it on with a sponge and let it sit for 10 minutes then spray off. Its also cheap $3.00 a bottle and it'll last along time.  |

I've always used Purple Power. That stuff very strong.
Spra down the atv with Spam orWD40 and most of the mud and dirt doesn't stick. At least it comes off easier.

I get that when I dont wash it all off. It's like dish soap, it takes 2 or 3 rinses to get it all off. Thats the only downside to it.
We used to have some green stuff awhile back but I don't recall the name.

I use Simple Green too, (someimes Grease Lightning)
Diluted a little, say 75% green, w/25% water.
Buy it by the gal. then mix it in a lawn sprayer (kind that you pump up) beats using out of a spray bottle 'cause it'll wear your hand out after awhile.
It dulls alum. a little bit if it stays on there for awhile, spraying motor & entire bike except brakes & seat w/ wd-40 or silicone spray
will keep the bike lookin like it came from the showroom & will make it easier to clean next time you wash it.
