I've been using this product for almost a year now, no colour changes or any other damage to whatever material.
Normally I use 3 or 4 wipes to clean the bike (1 or 2 for the wheels, 1 for the swingarm and greasy bits and the last one for the rest of the bike). Best regards, Jan, |

Purchased, I'll give some feedback when I clean my bike, which will be in about June next year.

Never used this before so decided to buy some to give it a try when my bike next needs a clean.
Got a tub from Infinity yesterday, but when I opened the box it came in some of the packaging seemed to be wet. It appears a bit of the foil seal had come away from the platic tub. So I'm wondering whether a lot of the magic liquid had leaked out already... Does anybody know...if you were to take all the wipes out of the tub...how much liquid is left in it at the bottom. Mine seems to have about 1"...is your's the same? |

Neil.... mine arrived by post, they were wrapped up in several layers of bubble wrap etc, but there was still a small stain even on the outer cardboard box and when I unravelled it all the tub was pretty greasy.
I've just lifted them all out to check for you and mines got less than an inch in the bottom, probably not even half an inch, the wipes themselves are pretty drenched though. I've used them a couple of times and it took the advised amount of wipes to clean the back that they suggest, so presumably they're saturated enough. Hope that helps. |

Just tried the Vulcanet wipes for the first time, to try to render the Monster presentable for the Horsham Piazza Italia after a week's commuting including rain.
I dread to think what unholy mixture of solvents they're soaked in (strong smell of nail varnish remover, and my hands now feel very dry) but they seem to do the trick. Very glad I left the bike to cool down after riding home, as I suspect they're hideously flammable! I probably ended up using about 5 instead of the suggested 2-3, mainly because of the amount of grit I could feel, which I didn't want to wipe across other bits of the bike. They even made a reasonable job of the backs of my exhaust pipes (a magnet for baked on chain fling and road crud). I dare say a thorough SDoc & water cleaning session (requiring the baking of large quantities of cookies) would have been just as effective or more so, but for a fairly quick fix for the terminally lazy bike cleaner like me, well worthwhile. |

Yes MrsC I thought the same, very strong smell just like nail varnish remover. I decided not to use it on any of the plastics but great for the wheels and engine
