does any one recomend washin my 400ex with anything other than a power washer? - and please dont tell me "dont use a powerwasher for starters" because i've never had a problem with dirt getting into bushings etc. because of the powerwasher, or even water for that matter.
but besides my powerwasher what should i use to get a REALLY clean looking quad?

 

Hmm, never heard the starter one, but I think that if you powerwash the chain, it can ruin the orings, or tear them. If your engine is greasy, rent a steam cleaner. Them things can do wonders...

 

and make sure u dont power wash the stickers or thell start to peel off and it will look bad (the decals that say 300ex etc)

 

any chemical suggestions? such as engine degreaser or anything other than soapy water?

 

SIMPLE GREEN [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] that's all I use and it works great.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

I use orange blast or purple power degreaser on the engine and frame.Then i use just soap and water to clean the fenders gets the job done great.

 

I have heard that is good stuff. I'm going to get some the next time I'm at walmart and give it a try. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
