These should be £7.99 each, they are currently £4.80 each and are on 3 for 2! So £3.20 each. Now have a garage full..... :wink: :oops: 8)

    Good shout, £4.80 is still an outrageous price for detergent, but can't moan it doesn't work.

    Had £50 worth of Halfords vouchers last spring as a leaving pressie and spent most of it on Much-Off stuff, not much else in Halfords I'd let near by bike.

    ....oh, and for this who use GT instead, that's also on 3 for 2 as is most bike maintenance products.

  • £7.99 is just ridiculous imo.

    But then if people are daft enough to pay the full price then why shouldn't they charge the earth ans laugh all the way to the bank...

    Me... i'll stick to stainless steel cleaner for 59p (2 washes per bottle).

    If you buy Fenwicks FS1 concentrate 1 litre it makes 10 litres of diluted and works out at 70-80p per litre.

    So even Muc Off at those discount prices is not a bargain.

    Thats cleaner though, we are talking about Bike Spray.

    However, I bought a bottle of Fenwicks when I ran out of Muc-Off wash because my local had run out of Muc-Off. It might be a bit cheaper, but I have to admit, it's not up to the performance of Muc-Off.

    fenwicks is cheaper and more effective... and can be used neat as a degreaser.
    I like bikes and stuff

    Really, that's interesting? I have Fenwicks Degreaser too and I'm not too fussed about that, it comes out like a Mr. Whippy ice cream.

    I just find that the FS1 just doesn't seem to do much compared to Muc-Off.

    Well Fenwicks cleans and degreases my bike perfectly, so what more can Muc Off do.

    Nothing I guess, if you are happy with it.

    Just in my experience, hasn't seemed to work as well. :lol: Maybe it's the difference in water?

    I found you have to mix quite a bit of fenwicks with water for it to have a similar efect to muc off.
    roughy 200 ml fenwicks/ makes 1 litre of okish bike cleaner.
    mixing it 100ml to make a litre works on fresh mud but forget shifting dried on stuff :D
    still good stuff though!
