Hi,

I've just purchased a matte black / white carbon frameset. My question is what cleaning products do you use to keep the frame tip top? I tend to wash my lacquered framed bike with car wash and wax products. Is this suitable or the matte finish carbon frame. I've read some guys use pledge etc...

Any assistance would be gratefully received.

Thanks.

    I just use ordinary car shampoo (non wax) on the frame. Once clean,(probably overkill) I use 303 protector spray. It cleans and protects against uv damage etc and is supposed to last 5 weeks per application-tis expensive though. I've noticed Wiggle sell matte carbon cleaner but have never tried it.

    Wash as normal, car products are fine. I get a nice finish after if I use Muc-off Silicone Shine
