Has anyone ever tried the stuff called "The BOM"? The stuff I used is a cleaner and protectant. If your bike is dusty you just spray this stuff on a damp rag and wipe down small areas at a time and then dry with a soft cloth. I was pretty impressed. The stuff really worked well. It does not leave any residue, especially on the rubber or plastic items where it usually will turn white if you get wax on it. It really shines though and does not smudge. They also make other products for cleaning; Cherry Bike Wash, Shock,(cleaner and degreaser) Boms Away (metal polisher) supposed to work well getting the bluing off of pipes. Again I have only tried The BOM and I was impressed. I am going to try some of their other products and see how they work. Has anyone else used any of these products?

I've used "Boms Away" (It's excellent) but was thinking about getting the normal "The BOM" for general cleaning.
Think I will now.

I just got some boms away... Any tips on using it? I tried it real quick with a cotton cloth, and I didn't seem to be making any progress...

Got BOMS Away. Shined up my forks very nicely, but doesn't get off squished bugs very well. Still using toothpicks & fingernails for that !!

For just getting dust off, the California Car Duster works great. You can get them at Walmart for like $10...and the dirtier they get, the better they seem to work!?

So Mike, are you just using a cotton rag? Any special technique?
