I used an air conditioning non acid condenser coil cleaner on mine. It did
not make it look new but it did take off 20 years of road grime and fuel/oil
stains on the first try. I got it at an air conditioning supply house. It is
a spray can of condenser coil cleaner for alumium. I just sprayed it on, let
it foam and rinsed it off. Not perfect but much better. I then took it for a
ride to get everything good and dry.

What work's best? I've read some about Eagle 1, but nothing that says which one of the E1 products would be most appropriate. Also I really don't want to use anything that requires me to have to spray a lot of water on the casings until I'm ready to tear them down and go through the innards (Phase 2), unless someone knows some good hints to keep water from getting into where it shouldn't go. I tried every flipping can of chemical warfare out there and was never satisfied. The only thing that made the cases look great was Pyrex glass bead blasting. Now, everybody says that the little pieces get stuck in the motor....bull. Blast it while its together making sure breather is covered, and wash the hell out of it! |
When Mark at Moto Guzzi Classics worked on my Ambo last time, he
detailed it out with something, and it looked like new......I think he
used an acid wash.....
