one can is worth its weight in gold...nothing else compares in my mind...

just dip a bolt in saltwater and hang it up outside ..coat one with acf50 first..and watch what happens over the weeks..

I'm with Russ on this one. Around £15 for a tin but it does go along way and protects your bike. Small price to pay in my eyes.

You can't beat the stuff.... :)
Adventure motorcycling is a challenge for those who go but only a dream for those who stay behind.

I look for some reviews. It's a bit cheaper on Ebay. Cheers

you use ACF50 once every 6 months on exposed bits, up to 2yrs on out of the way places, and 1 can goes a very long way. you spray FS365 every time the bike gets wet. so ACFs not expensive at all really.

So ACF 50 don't come off when you wash it. I've been washing the salt off my bike as soon as?
