My bike has never been so clean.... EVER. paraffin is the most amazing shit. Using household cleeaner and dish washing liquid I used to break a sweat for 45 mins and hardly clean the rims for shit!. Now in 10 minutes with some paraffin in a little container and a paintbrush they're cleaner than they've ever been.
I didn't go nuts, i just did a 80-90% job.


hmmmm, time for a ride! :D

For getting the crap off wheels i use mr sheen (not Barry) it is the mutts nutts with so little effort.

Paraffin is indeed the best stuff

loving it, I know what I will be adding to my collection this weekend

i have a funny thing about paraffin after i set fire to myself, no joke, long story, lots of burns....

when I was a kid, my old man had a paraffin heater in his greenhouse. The paraffin was always blue and stunk! I recently got a gallon from B&Q (£six pound bleedin fifty, robbing gits!) this stuff is nearly clear and doesnt smell at al,l still works just as good.

Technology, eh?

apart from the risk of burning yourself... sounds like a good idea.. will give it a go..

the best thing is they used paraffin dressings to treat it, really is amazing stuff.....




still dont like the f£$%ing stuff anymore

is this stuff okay to get on your tyres when your rinsing the wheels etc?

make sure to rinse with plenty of water afterwards and it will be fine
