There are plenty of corrosion inhibitors out there that promise months or even years of protection, but my testing indicates that – at least for a regular winter rider who keeps their bike clean – this is might not be the case. A. It depends on how much you are using your chain, whether it’s a on a motorbike, go-kart, pedal bike or any other application. XCP Chain Lubricant is long lasting, but like anything with movement and pressure, reapplication will be required from time to time to ensure smooth and optimal maintenance of the chain. Keep an eye on it. A little goes a long way, but reapply when you see the chain drying out. XCP GREEN ONE does exactly the same thing as XCP ONE, but it is made from bio-based ingredients that are renewable, sustainable and bio-degradable. Optional) Lubricate and/or protect surfaces with your preferred XCP Professional spray, as necessary.

Ošetřená místa lze dokonce omývat v případě přilnutí nečistot během provozu bez ztráty účinnosti XCP. V závislosti na požadované úrovni ochrany lze tloušťku ochranného filmu regulovat jeho množstvím při nástřiku nebo rozleštěním.

Storage and Disposal

Will applying XCP ONE / GREEN ONE on consecutive days help to loosen particularly stubborn bolts etc? How often you have to put these on will depend on their performance, but also how often you clean the bike. For effectiveness 3-4 months really isn’t long enough to establish that, and we weren’t going to coat a bike and ride it around for two or three years to see if it rusted over. Some fairly basic testing we carried out gave some positive results, but this is were lab testing comes into it’s own. Thanks to trail and adventure parts manufacturer Rally Raid products for supplying the aerosol lids used as sample dishes from their sister company Masplas Mouldings.

It also doesn’t ‘soak’ into or enhance rubbers and plastics such as handlebar grips and switchgear so you’d probably want to avoid applying to those. Although it won’t hurt these surfaces in any way, getting it on your gloves then using them to wipe away rain or bugs. can leave smearing on the visor. The protectants were tested for material compatibility, to ensure they can’t harm any on your motorbike

Market leading, industrial strength protection against rust and corrosion. Protects up to 500 times longer than multi-purpose sprays.

I drilled 2.5mm holes (with a pillar drill for consistency) in all the samples of the three different plastics, then carefully inserted stainless steel M3 self-tapping screws to create stress risers that highlight any incompatibilities between the material and the chemical. In the Best Motorcycle Cleaners test I used samples of painted steel, anodised aluminium, ABS plastic, polycarbonate, acrylic and chain O-rings to ensure material compatibility. Maximum Protection: For market leading corrosion and rust protection, trust the powerful and unique XCP formula to provide long lasting protection against moisture and other corrosive elements. Beats ACF-50 and other market leaders when compared using salt fog test ASTM B117. However, it’s been out of the scope of my testing to look at lubrication performance – where relevant – and this is a test that’s purely trying to find the best way to stop your motorbike from going rusty…

So, unlike some of the cleaning products I tried, you can spray the corrosion protectants (and multipurpose sprays) featured here without any worries. Maximální antikorozivní a ochranné účinky jsou dány původním zaměřením prostředků XCP pro průmyslový trh. I carried out the same test here, leaving the samples in the products for two weeks as, while they’re intended to provide a protective barrier against corrosion on metals, it’s almost impossible to apply them without getting them on the rest of the bike. Even if it’s wiped away, any product will be coating the insides of the bodywork and many other parts of the machine.If there are any other products you’d like me to include in a future test, please let me know in the comments below.

ACF-50 can be a little reluctant to come out of the aerosol can on a cold day, so keep it indoors for a while, or put it in some warm water.These products were all selected based on their claims, or after recommendation by the Bennetts Facebook community, but it’s obvious that those designed specifically as corrosion protectants tended to fare the best in this corrosion test; GT85, for instance, isn’t sold as a corrosion inhibitor but many people use it as such, assuming it’s superior to WD-40 (both products are from the same parent company). XCP Clear Coat is easy to apply from the spray bottle and hangs onto no more grit after rinsing than TechCote. It can also be poured straight into a paint gun’s pot and applied with a compressor. Clear Coat in an aerosol can is extremely easy to use and only missed out on a Best Buy as the bottle is better value. If you don’t mind paying a bit extra, and won’t want to apply it with a compressor, it’s worth the money. Hopefully it goes without saying that ALL of these products MUST be kept away from your brake calipers, pads, discs and tyres. Do not apply them to the brake disc carriers either as centripetal force will throw them out onto the disc surface. If you’re applying any of these products with a compressor, be sure to cover your entire wheels first. Po nanesení a zaschnutí vytvoří XCP měkký povlak, který odolává praskání, netvrdne a vydrží při přímém působení vnějších vlivů několik měsíců.
