Same colour, same smell, same bottle, £1!!
yep , wifey picked me up the last 6 bottles they had last week !!
Posted here a week or so ago about the stuff & tbh, it seems to work, no sign of the paint melting off my rusty hack, or my lawn glowing at night, its all good so far 😉
if u buy the fenwicks concentrate it works out at less than £1 a litre
i use it so much (great for bug splats and road grime on motorbikes) i got a 5L tub of conc works out even cheaper
But the poundland stuff comes in squirty bottles
how many squirty bottles do you need?!
11 for the price of fenwicks
How good is this product exactly? Report required. 🙂
A Fenwicks mans myself, love the smell so much I wear it as aftershave to woo the ladies. 😉
I got hold of one today, not sure its the same one though, it looks the same colour as Muc-off, but its not got a squirty trigger, I think its called Wash and wax.
I gave up on all this stuff ages ago. Since then my BBs and bearings have all lasted much longer. Can't really see the point of it tbh, my bike gets plenty clean enough with a hose and a brush. Citrus degreaser does the chain when required. The shitshifter I got in a Mucoff Xmas gift box thing does a great job of cleaning my van however. Don't think I'd be brave enough to put it on my car.
The £1 bike stuff I got doesn't seem to have any cleaning power! Fenwicks from now on...
i got a couple of bottles too. Not used it yet though.
Aldi currently have caravan cleaner for a few quid a litre. Seen it recommended before so picked up a couple of bottles on Saturday.
Heavily concentrated apparently so should work out more economical than Poundland - plus of course it can be used stronger if needed.
Hope it actually works!
mines called xtreme power bikecleaner and has a uk address on it.
TBH - I've never had any problems with plain old soap and hot water, what's the advantage of these cleaners then?
I tried soap and water but the lumps of palmolive stuck in my chain seem to interfere with the shifting a bit.

Most washes you don't need to touch the bike at all. Rinse bike, spray on, rinse off. Fenwicks neat on the drivetrain and you're done.
If it contains
Trisodium nitrilotriacetate
It's the same as muc off at a 1-5% concentration. It's also called Traffic Film remover. Our chem supplier gives us 5 litre bottles free of charge.

Don't use muc off or any shit like that on youre bike, it slowly eats it alive. also will make the warranty on fox fork invalid. 🙁
