Air Force Blaster & Polish : V-Twin Forum: Harley Davidson Forums

Hi there to all you V-Twiners,

First of all I'd like to say that finally after months of looking for a bike I have bought not only my first ever motorcycle but my dream Harley.

Now as this is my first bike im looking for the best or good cleaing products for the bike.

The last owner said they used to use the Harley Chrome Cleaner but found it too abrasive.

Could you guys recommend any?

I have had a look at previous threads and seen Mothers and Turtle wax have had a fair mention.

Also the main reason for the post is Im looking to get an Air Force Blaster, has anyone from the UK ever bought one if so where from and for how much I know in the US they are around $180-220.

I just cant find any here in the UK for sale.

Ive also seen Harley have thier own out now is it any good should I get this instead, though it did seem less powerful.

Any replies would be excellent.

Cheers

Riccardo

In regards to the Air Force Blaster, I use a dedicated shop vac with the hose reversed. I picked it up cheap at Sears and it works great.

There are several different ways you can go and all will do the job. Some folks swear by a leaf blower. I do own a air force blaster and love it. There is a filter in it to filter the air and after a short period of time the air comes out warm.

Got an Air Force Blaster for Christmas.

MAN, that thing friggin' ROCKS! Bought it brand new off eBay for the price you indicated in your post. Some of the reputable eBayers will ship to the UK.........

Check dog grooming supplies, Riccardo. The Air Force Blaster was a "force drier" for dogs long before it was a motorcycle blow drier.

Works for me as well ecept mine is a Rigid from Home depot. I use it for everthing else also since it has the filter in it so no junk gets blown on the bike...
