BTW. You shouldn't jet wash a bike. You will loose the grease in the wheel bearings if you do.
I like MucOff but there's got to be something cheaper that does the same job??? I heard somebody once used oven cleaner but without knowing how it turned out I'm a bit nervy of trying it. Oh... where's Buck when you need him???

Is that true about the wheel bearing grease? Aren't they supposed to be sealed?
