    Dispatch reacted to Dkhazlett in An Adam's Quick-Detailer For Salty Air Exposure?   
    Absolutely.  Nine years in Hawaii and they were dog years.  Waikiki isn’t real life. We had friends with beachfront, and nothing ferrous lasted more than a few years.  It wasn’t as bad at altitude or inland, but you can’t completely avoid the spray.  The waterless products should hold you over between full washes.  Plenty of room in Texas for you — no state income tax here either!

    That's an interesting idea.  I've spent vacations at the beach for years, and my one main complaint, even when the weather is great, is the film that gets all over the glass and paint.  It's different from pollen, or other stuff we all get living inland. It's almost a greasy feel.  I just give the car a good bath when I get home to get it off, but then again, I don't live there or have to deal with it year round.  I can definitely see where a product or several devoted just to this kind of issue would be helpful to a lot of people.  Thanks for bringing that up Dispatch.

    No no, I was just saying what I been doing/using so far, I'll give those a shot. 
     
    Living at or near the beach isn't what most think, its a lot of work especially if you like to keep what's yours in good shape...

    The only thing that's available which works well is 'salt-off' I get from West Marine but it's a pain because you have to drag out the hose and everything else, also the bike gets all soaked, it would be soooo... nice if I could find a quick detailer that did exactly as this stuff does, just not with so much back-breaking effort all the time and so often...
     
    BullFrog makes a rust blocker but I've never tried it on a motorcycle.
     
    The thing is (as you all may know), you can't let salty air spray sit, it's really damaging to a cars/bikes beautiful finish especially the chrome. 
     
    I had a brand new enclosed motorcycle trailer I bought, even with constant washing(once every week or so),  in less than a year of living in a condo on A1A, all the metal hardware corroded and rusted so badly I sold it not too long after that.

    Detail Spray, Waterless Wash, Rinseless Wash diluted 16:1 (Waterless Wash-like solution), and Ceramic Waterless Wash are all good options...and sold in large bottles! Plus, adding a solid base coat first like Paint Sealant or Ceramic (Spray) Coating would make it easier to keep clean and add a ton more protection.

    If the pads are Adam's, the red and grey (black) have no cut, so you'll need at least a white pad, maybe orange, and the polish to match. If by hand, you can try the hex grip that matches the color polish. You might also be able to get by with Revive if you take your time and are patient.
