    Enfield has been ACF50'd for it's Winter duties, hopefully the stuff also turns already rusted metal back to original condition ; )

    Did my ACF50 a few weeks back, now I need a giant can of de-icer, came off night shift this morning and had to scrape a few mm of ice off the thing!

    (the steam is the ice encrusted pipes and engine melting)

    Rather you than me, I was miffed as my Volvo app wouldn't connect so couldn't preheat seats and interior while having brekkie, had to get out with deicer and leave the motor running, awful ; )

    If you don't know, please ask the question, that's how we all learn. Hopefully DaddyCool's link explains.
    We could learn a lot from crayons; some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, while others bright, some have weird names, but they all have learned to live together in the same box.”

    ACF50 - brilliant stuff

    Another one I sometimes use which is also very good especially if you wash your bike weekly is FS365 - its not quite as oily as ACF50

    Cheers! Looks like pretty good stuff. Saw my instructor briefly this morning and one of the first things he said was "if you're going to ride through winter you need to get some ACF50 and put it on now."
    Better get some!

    Thanks QB, not aware of the Scottoiler option. Hoping to pick up next years ration of ACF50 at the bike show so will keep an eye out for this as well.
