We all know it stops things from corroding.
And it stays put for quite a long time.

Here's something new - if you throw an ACF50 soaked microfibre cloth in the washer it makes all your clothes smell like brasso.
Bugger.

One has to assume that this is well known to Nooj with his bike-proofing business.

One also has to wonder whether washing a towel in the same wash and then using it to dry oneself brings up a coppery shine .... it would explain things ...

:smt005 Brilliant - I've made a careful note.

I can also confirm that soaking a microfibre cloth that's soaked in ACF50 overnight in bleach and washing up liquid makes no difference at all.

Sounds pretty damn persistent stuff to me.

Which is (of course) why it does its job so well...

Any cloths I use on bikes have to be washed separately from Debz' stuff. Personally I don't mind smelling of 'new car'.

On the plus side I'll be able to see if any of my clothes corrode.
