cleaning screens

[vwee]

Spent the weekend cleaning me wee.all looks nice and shiny except for the givi screen.
Apart from throwing water at it what do you blokes use without putting scratch marks on screens.

[Juvecu]

Same as I do with visors, wet a soft cloth with hot water, put some soap on it and work it to a foam, then 'stick' it to the screen (make sure the cloth is very wet and use water as hot as you can touch.) Leave it on for 5 or so mins and then wipe it off. The hot water softens the bugs and the soap makes things slippery and gets rid of the rest.

[Fat Rat]

I use 'Fuchs Off' which softens the dead stuff etc. then all that is needed is a wipe with a damp cloth

Muc off or a hot wet cloth or both works ;)

Brillo bad?    


Joke....

It's raining, my screen looks quite good, nature dirtied it, nature can clean it up again

 

[milano_jon]

just did mine, for the first time since new, and still managed to get scratches on it. used a very soft cloth and hot water/soap.

Bugg3r....

Oh and with cleaning anything give it a rinse with hose first, gets any of the loose stuff off to minimise scratching

[V-Strom-Mark]

The same method as Juvecu, no scratches yet.  I've yet to clean the MRA vario I put on earlier this year, although I haven't ridden much in the last eight weeks.

I find that hot/warm water with fairy liquid shifts them

I do the screen and other fly splattered bits then onto the greasy bits with the fairy/water.

Then I do the whole bike with car wash/wax to get a nice shine

Its virtually impossible not to get small suface scratches on the screen when you wash the bike, Mr Sheen or any spray wax polish removes them. I just buy Asda's own at about 60p a can and polish all the bike with it.
