I've heard on the grapevine, that some manufacturers state use of Muc-Off invalidates your warranty against paintwork damage as it's so harsh...

I think there has been a thread about it on here in the past if my memory serves me correctly....

From what ive just read. its rather harsh neat depending on the Type of product it is. Others are saying to dilute the mixture. the Freebie is a 100ml Bottle..

BMW used to refuse warranty work for corrosion if they found out the bike had been cleaned with Muc-Off. Don't know if that still stands, or if the recipe's been changed.

TBH, I think a lot of the problem was people not using it correctly. If you have to use it, don't let it dry onto any part of your bike, don't use it on any hot part of your bike, even if it's only been heated by the sun, and rinse it off thoroughly afterwards. Watering it down as a 5-1 mix is a good idea as well as it is very aggressive stuff.

There's better stuff out there, but if it's free.....

It will strip anodising double quick, so all you Bandit owners steer clear, SDOC100 is a far superior product.

Yup, BMW have been known to invalidate corrosion warranties if Muc Off has been used. There are occasional deals on SDoc100 - I just bought 6 litres for the price of 3. I then dilute it 1:4 and just leave it a bit longer before washing off.

It's good for mtb's, and off roaders, just don't leave it too long.

Hello fellow riders!
First things first, we have to send out a huge THANKS to everyone who signed up for the free 100ml sample of Muc-Off Bike Cleaner. We’ve been busy packing and labelling, and all the free samples of Muc-Off Bike Cleaner will be arriving with the lucky, successful applicants over the next few days. There was a massive response to the offer and while we’ve sent out all the samples we had in stock, there just wasn’t enough to go around.
But it’s not all bad news! We want to give you a unique voucher code (see below) worth £5 to use in the Muc-Off Official Online Store when you spend £15 or more! We know it's nowhere near as cool as a free sample, but we want to try to make sure everyone gets a little something. We'll be doing another sample offer soon, so watch this space!
Your Voucher Code: MO3441425
*This is a unique voucher code and can only be redeemed once. Voucher code is redeemable for 12 months.
