Any ideas and suggestions on how to remove white marks on my R1200GS engine & wheels?
Hello All,
I recently bought a R1200GS Rallye and few weeks back I made a very stupid mistake of spraying self service power washer foam/detergent on my bike, immediately after a long trip...well, the result was white spots, marks and streaks all over my brand bike's black coated engine and wheels!!!
I have tried pretty much everything I knew and read about (e.g. WD-40 with a soft brush, Maguire's mirror glaze fine #2 and medium #1 cutting compounds, followed by 3M hand glaze, etc..) but had very little success in removing those annoying white spots/marks...
And those few I managed to remove came back on after I rode the bike again. I believe all I did was just to mask them, rather than completely cleaning/removing and they came back on once the heat generated from the engine and sun evaporated
Any ideas, thoughts on how to get rid of these? Attached few pics and would really appreciate your suggestions
Many thanks,
BK
