Overview
What makes the SILCA Ultimate Bike Wash safe for paint?
The SILCA Ultimate Bike Wash is an eco-friendly, heavily concentrated bike soap built around advanced surfactants that lift dirt off painted surfaces and encapsulate it, so grime rinses or scrubs away without leaving micro-scratches or swirl marks in the paint. It is clean rinsing and leaves no residue, and SILCA says it is safe to use on a bike with a waxed chain. Mix it with warm water in a bucket, work it in with a sponge or soft brush, then rinse with clean water.
This is step 2 in SILCA's four-step Bicycle Spa system, alongside the Ultimate Brake and Drivetrain Cleaner, Ultimate Graphene Spray Wax, and Ultimate Ceramic Waterless Wash. It is a heavy concentrate in a 16oz bottle with a Cherry Glow scent.
