hello,

i have two white bikes, despite it being a colour i dont particularly like. other than not really liking the colour, my problem is that they mark so easily. not so much scratches but just marks that wont come off. any tips for removing them?

cheers.

It's not going too well then, is it? 🙂

Let them mark until they look a mess, then re-spray in a colour you like.

Spray areas with a silicone spray or any lube and wipe with a dry towel. Jobs a gud un'

WD40 is good, or a drop of T-Cut on really stubborn stuff.

Buffed up my white 575 with one of these, it came up like new and had deep ingrained marks on it.

Solvol Autosol. Cleaner for car shiny bits. Works a treat. Just a small blob will clean anything. Polishes up nice too.
