Instructions for hand washing, cleaning and polishing motorbikes
Clean the vehicle properly and remove coarse dirt, even for matt paintwork.
Instructions for cleaning & caring for your motorbike
High-pressure cleaning & hand washing
- Remove coarse dirt with a high-pressure cleaner. Keep a minimum distance of 50 cm from sensitive parts (bearings, seals, electronics).
- Spray Supreme Motorcycle Cleaner onto the cold, dry surface, distribute with a brush, and let it work for 1–2 minutes.
- Gently rinse off with the high-pressure cleaner.
- Wash the motorcycle with Motorcycle Wash and the Wash Pad. Two-bucket method: one bucket with clear water for rinsing, one bucket with Motorcycle Wash.
- Rinse thoroughly with clear water. Dry carefully with the Ultra-Dry.
Hand polish & wax
- Clean the paint surface thoroughly and dry it completely (as described under hand washing).
- Apply Cleaner Fluid Regular with a polishing sponge in horizontal or vertical movements.
- Wipe off with the Micro-Fluffy. Then apply Bike Sheen wax in a thin layer with an applicator.
- Let cure for 10–15 minutes, then buff to a high gloss with a clean Micro-Fluffy. Do not apply too much pressure.
Optional: Additionally seal the wax layer with Lotos Speed or Keramiq9.
Rim cleaning
- Clean the rims of coarse dirt with a high-pressure cleaner.
- Spray the cold rims with SWISSVAX Wheel Cleaner or Wheel Spray Forte.
Leave
the product to work for 1-2 minutes. Use a soft rim brush to distribute
the cleaner and remove dirt and brake dust. The SWISSVAX Wheel Spray
Forte cleaner turns purple and thus shows its cleaning effect. - Rinse the rims thoroughly with clear water and dry them with a SWISSVAX Ultra-Dry.
Optional: Protect the rims afterwards with SWISSVAX Autobahn Wax for easier future cleaning.
Cleaning the matt paint by hand
- Use a high-pressure cleaner to remove coarse dirt and
contamination from the vehicle. Do not use a high-pressure cleaner
directly on sensitive parts such as bearings, seals or electronics. Keep
a minimum distance of 50 cm and regulate the strength of the water jet
accordingly. - Spray SWISSVAX Supreme Motorcycle Cleaner onto the
cold, dry surface, spread the cleaner with a brush and leave it to work
for 1-2 minutes. - Gently rinse the vehicle again with the high-pressure cleaner.
- Clean
the motorcycle with SWISSVAX Motorcycle Wash Opaque and a SWISSVAX wash
poodle with water. It is recommended to use the dual-wash system: one
bucket with clear water to be able to wash out the wash poodle again and
again and one bucket with Wash Opaque and finally rinse the vehicle
thoroughly with clear water. - Then dry carefully with an Ultra-Dry microfiber cloth.
Pre-treatment & wax for matt paints
- Clean the matt paint with SWISSVAX Opaque Pre-Cleaner to remove impurities and traces of oil.
- Apply a thin layer of SWISSVAX Opaque Wax with an applicator.
- Do not allow the wax to harden and polish gently with a microfiber cloth - avoid too much pressure.
Optional: You can additionally seal the wax layer on your vehicle with Lotos Speed or optionally with Keramiq9.
