@ listers,

I am also following the VTR UK list and they came up with this:


"...
As I was planning on selling mine, I thought I too should look at
getting round to cleaning the bike properly. Since my aborted trip to Le
Mans which entailed 10 hours of rain at 80mph, my bike has developed
loads of white bloom on the fastenings and ally parts.
Fear not oh unsociable twin owners I have a cunning plan....

Get one of those instants shoe shine pads. They are a foam with some
kind of wax inside which when rubbed on to all your nuts and bolts,
hoses etc really vanish the alloy bloom and put a nice protective shiny
coating on. Simple, just like me..."

Anybody knows what they are on about?

Or any good tricks for getting dust away and keeping it away as well?
Do silicon sprays do the job?
