Wondering what everyone uses to clean the black wrinkle finish on there bikes. I have oil all over the side cover from the breather setup that needs cleaned off. I have a catch can in the works so this won't happen again.

For oil around the front after a filter change I use carb cleaner.

Be careful. I used carb cleaner on my unpainted engine and some got on my frame and ate into the paint.

Some carb cleaners may be safe for paint, but not the stuff I used.

I use some stuff called Forever Black that I got from Schucks,and It works great. It keeps every thing black and looking new. I use te same stuff on my truck and car trim, rubber, and bumpers also. Showroom finish literally..

Wd40 works great on the wrinkle paint.
