Brilio.net - Having a motorbike that is always clean and shiny is certainly everyone's dream. However, it cannot be denied that over time, motorbikes will usually experience a number of problems, one of which is rust. In general, rust will stick to the motor body which is made of iron, such as the motor gear.
Rusty motorbike gears not only reduce aesthetics, but can also affect performance and safety when riding. Rusty teeth can cause the motorbike chain to work less than optimally, reducing power efficiency and accelerating the wear of other components. Therefore, it is important to prevent rust from appearing on the motorbike's gears so that the two-wheeled vehicle remains in top condition.
However, if the motorbike's gears are already rusty, there is a simple method that can be done to fix it. A number of people usually repaint their motorbike gears to disguise the rust stains. Unfortunately, this method requires special materials in the form of motorbike paint.
In fact, there are other materials that you can use to clean the rust on this motorbike's gears . Well, this simple ingredient was used by the gentlemen who own the YouTube account Imam Yazid. Through one of the uploaded videos, he admitted that he relied on one kitchen ingredient when he wanted to clean rusty motorbike gears.
This trick for cleaning rust from motorbike gears only uses 1 kitchen ingredient.
Reported by BrilioFood from Imam Yazid's YouTube on Tuesday (21/5), the kitchen ingredient in question is dishwashing soap. To use it, simply mix dish soap and enough clean water. If so, add the citrus and stir until all the ingredients are dissolved.

Next, apply the liquid to the rusty motorbike gear. You can use a brush to make the spread more even. After that, let it sit for 5 minutes so that the liquid is absorbed into the rust stain.

If you have let it sit, immediately brush the motorbike's teeth using a wire brush. If it has been rubbed, wipe it immediately using a wet cloth and a dry cloth alternately. Shortly after wiping, the motorbike's teeth immediately looked shiny because the rust had completely disappeared.
The increasingly shiny appearance of the motorbike's teeth indicates that this mixture of dishwashing soap and citron is very effective in removing stubborn stains such as rust. Apart from motorbike gears, this liquid can also be applied to other rusty motorbike parts, such as the iron in the tires. That way, the motorbike will look cleaner and shinier.
