Silicone Spray *Warning*

[LowRyter]

I like to dress up the bike, engine and hoses with Silicone spray.  It gives a nice shine to everything and protects from water, good on rubber and plastic.  But I ran into a problem the WD 40 Silicone Specialist Lubricant.  I'm sure it lubricates but it leaves a flat milky finish.  Not good to dress up your engine, car or bike.

I recommend Ace Hardware Silicone Lubricant.  It leaves a nice shine.  I think the key was written in the instructions: recommended for slippery car bumpers.

When you started on dressing rubber, I thought, "No not the tyres!"

Agreed..the WD40 Silicone spray lubricant is not good for anything I have wanted it for...was disappointed in the purchase.

Here in Florida where the morning dew is salty, I use silicone spray on the bare aluminum to eliminate white dusty corrosion and protect it.

Torco Moto Prep silicon spray works well for me.

Be aware, though, that if you use it on the seat, you will be able to move around on the seat very, very well. Slippery...

I know some hardcore gun handlers and they said if you hate your guns , use WD-40 on them .
