Just been having a look on the web about bike cleaning, seems everyone recommends specific bike cleaners rather than a bit of fairy liquid. Does washing up liquid really harm your bike? What do you use?

Muc off products all the way!the spray to clean it and then an aerosol to protect the paint and stops mud sticking

I have MucOff but won't be buying more once it's gone, car shampoo/fairy does the same job at a fraction of the price.

Bike Wash from 99p shop smells and looks like MucOff and don't dull paint.
Winter use Hope Shifter Bike Cleaner was called Shit shifter
Also there Fenwicks

GT85 for cassette & chain get water off/out then relube
MucOff Bike Spray - stanchion & frame

Fairy liquid will scratch the paint as it's abrasive.
I use duck foaming wash or hope sh!t shifter or if I can't get either then muk off

Fenwicks as I grabbed a load whilst up at Ard Rock, foams up well and cleans bike nice. (have enough for 8lts now)

As said use a good bike spray as well, muc off one is a nice smell and wont make the mud stick so much

MucOff ! leave it on for 3 minutes preferably not in direct sun light rinse off then I go over with car shampoo & old wash mit I use protect & shine (Mucoff) on the frame and mist some GT85 on cassette, Finishline ceramic wet or dry lube on the chain.

I ve been using Squirt lube and cleaner in the last 2 months with some excellent results.

fenwicks fs1 is also very good cleaner and value for money

That has been done a while and keeps popping up on line, and who leaves the product on the bike for hours, most is washed off after minutes if not seconds, so no harm done
