    as mentioned at the raven meet last nigt - for the north west, a guy on northwestbikers (top lad, rides a cbr600rr) is doing complete snowfoam, valet and acf treatment for just £40.

    if anyone's interested, let me know and i'll add his contact details, if no-one objects :)

    bargain imo.

    I was thinking exactly that mate.

    Sorry dudes, but why would you pay someone £20 quid to spray at these prices what's probably not a fivers ACF over your bike? Not meant to sound challenging just interested to know, as apart from covering the brakes and wiping the excess away with something like a micro fibre is there much more to applying it to a pre cleaned bike?

    I do my own when I take it off the road Oct/Nov just to protect it in the garage personally Barney id leave it for a few months mate before having it done so you have maximum protection thru the winter months,just my thoughts mate.

    Sorry dave its not like that , this is done with a high pressure gun , ( 110bar)
    Gets in all the right places , I've seen it and much better than buying a tin .
    Well that's my opinion anyway ,

    Don't apologise mate, as mentioned just curious to know what's different as haven't seen a pro do it.

    Fair shout, spose even if you have your own compressor it's worh the 20 quid to not have all the over spray on the garage floor or drive, bad enough with rattle can

    Well, after another Glass-O-Red last night I whipped the Card out for a spanking and bought the 4 Litre container!

    Will pop in to the B&Q Garden Centre Tomorrow! :D

    I love cleaning my bike. Something I enjoy and almost a Hobby. But saying that I don't do it that often when the weathers good it's a shame to be cleaning when you can be riding
