:: Washing::

   Specially made for
     Remember to use a detergent that’s made for bikes, because dishwashing soap is too strong for it and will only get rid of the wax that you actually would want to keep.

   Twice

 

   When your bike is extremely dirty, wash it twice. Once for getting out of the bulk of the dirt, and the other one will finish up the job.

   Lots of it
     Use generous amounts of water when rinsing. Scratch causing dirt particles will tend to float away if enough water is used.
    ::Drying ::

   They have to be soft
     Use only clean, freshly washed cotton cloths or towels to dry or to apply materials to the surface of your bike.

   Rinse it all
   After washing, rinse the entire bike just to be sure all the soap is cleared away. Don't forget the nooks, crannies and crevices where soap can hide.
