Pledge

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I was wondering if any of you guys use lemon pledge? Someone told me to google, lemon pledge motorcycle a while back. Well I did, and I tried it and have been using it ever since on both my BD and HD. I was reluctant at first but have been using it ever since. It works great on everything. Paint, chrome, leather, windshields and just about everything.

I have been using it on my cars also, its great on the interior. Dash, leather seats, even the plastic in front of the speedometer which is usually difficult to clean. Its way cheaper than armor all, lasts longer, doesn't attract dust. The plastic headlight covers that yellow...........put pledge on them after you wash the vehicle it prevents the yellowing. I turned one of my friends onto it (he is obnoxiously anal about his truck) and now he won't use anything else!

I always travel with a can now and had a can in Daytona Beach when one of my friends unloaded his filthy bike from the trailer. I told him that I didn't want to offend him but his bike was filthy. Sprayed the entire (black) bike with lemon pledge and wiped it down. It looked beautiful and he couldn't believe it!

I read that the only draw back is that it attracts bee's in the summer. Haven't seen that personally. Seriously, give it a try!

safe on chrome and paint, lol! The first time I used it on the paint I was worried that I would have it looking like it was stripped for a paint job! The way it was explained to me was this: what do you use pledge on...good furniture, wood that is lacquered. Well our bikes aren't wood but they are lacquered! Works great dude, promise!!

I think I'm going to try it.

I have a detailer that said it wont work... its an old school bullshit tail. it does work but offers no paint protection and can actually cause long term damage to things like vynal and leather... so who knows...

Though, the way I look at it - I would rather use Honda Polish or No-Wet than this. But, if you're going for a pledge product, the multi-surface kicks ass and doesn't smell like lemons.

Leather is porous and as such would benefit from the oils in Pledge.
