I have been doing some amateur mobile auto detailing for a brief time now. A customer just contacted me to detail his Yamaha V Star 100. I have never detailed a motorcyicle before. What should I know? I assume I will treat the painted surfaces just as I would treat the painted surfaces of a car. As for all the chrome...blue magic? mothers metal polish? Meguiars speed glaze 80? Those are the products I currently have that might suit it. For the leather and vinyl areas...i can use the same products I use on leather and vinyl auto interiors? What about the wheels? I just want to make sure I don't do anything potentially damaging to this guy's motorcycle.
