The fine porous surface of the frame and swingarm has wax in the pores and has created a hazy dull surface color and makes it look old or dirty. I have tried a few wax removers with no luck at getting the wax build up out of the porous surface. Has anyone else run into this and found a solution. |

Have you tried pre-cleano.You'll find it at a automotive paint supply store.Should do the trick. |

I have used a couple of 3M wax remover products and some citrus solvent / cleaner with no improvement. I will hunt down some Pre-Cleano and try it. |

Proper waxing results in 10% less static drag. And less static drag results in 10% less wax. HA! I'm such a math whiz. |
