ACF-50 - Any Good? I ride my Duke every day and she is starting to suffer. I worried about salt spray. ACF-50 looks good on paper, but at £99 per 4 litres so expensive. Any deals out there? Anyone actually used it? |
anti corrosive aircraft spray? very good - particularly great for getting rid of corrosion, but dont know what its like for protection |

Protection wise it seems to work I think, but to be honest i'm not entirely sure I clean my bikes every week anyway so and i dont have another bike that I dont use it on to compare. I think if you tend to leave cleaning to once a month or longer I reckon you notice. |
I've never used it, but I've heard its very good and very expensive. I think M&P or Busters Accessories recommend it and rave on about it. |
try Scottoiler 365, about £25 for 4.5 litres, it needs reapplying after it gets washed off but seems to protect well. i ride in winter and live just below Shap so we get quite a lot of grit on the roads ( Shap was almost blocked with snow last weekend!!) used it all last winter and the bike still looks good. |
I use it along with Scottoiler 365, both very good |
ACF 50 got mentioned in the comic recently as an excellent protector for bikes used in winter, don't recal it being as expensive as the quote above. Yep it used on aircraft so I guess it works, nothing more embarasing than yer wings giving ya a round of applause for that tricky landing:D I'll see if I can find the tip. Ray. |
yes it does both, i nought mine from http://www.briliant.biz but Im not sure they still sell ACF 50 |
Can't find the MCN it was in. It looks like ACF 50 is being touted as wonder product for bikes, a quick search brings up more hits for bikes than aircraft:o I would say if its for aircraft use it's gonna do what its supposed to do. It looks like the price is pretty steep though, available in aerosol's, 1 litre and 4 litres. Ray. |
many years ago i sprayed a new bike with WD40 every day for a week, after that time you get a hard protective crust form that can be washed of with parafin in spring time. |
