AKheathen Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 odg. no! it will shrink into a blaster :yelrotflmao: j/k yah, just don't get water in the intake or exhaust. and a trick i learned, spray it down with wd-40 after you wash it, and it comes clean really easy after the next time you ride Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wildcardracing Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 Soap is fine. Best bet is to plug the exhaust and cover the intakes with something and also avoid spraying the intake area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

05.Banshee.SE Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 I use tranny fluid. (Not that kind of tranny NYUK) LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Hahaha, that's great. CRC (Contact Cleaner) is less harmful than WD40 and works better IMHO. (Not for plastics though...don't spray it on there lol.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRC (Contact Cleaner) is less harmful than WD40 and works better IMHO. (Not for plastics though...don't spray it on there lol.) it's not to clean it, it's to make the shit wash off easier next time. spray everything, but the exhaust after you wash it, then wipe it off, i use simple green to clean stubborn shit. or solvent.

I don't use contact cleaner to clean it....I spray it on after to protect it, just like I used to with WD40. (But it is less harmful.) I'll try and line up a side by side comparison of the two and get back to you guys about which works better. Simple Green is amazing.
