- Spray liberally on the cassette, chain, brake rotors, pads, chainrings, and pulleys.
- Watch it turn reddish-purple as it encapsulates dirt, oil, and brake dust.
- Let it work for three to five minutes, then rinse thoroughly.

Step 2: Wash with SILCA Ultimate Bike Wash

- Add three ounces of concentrate per five gallons of water for maximum foaming action.
- Clean the wheels, tires, and frame using a sponge or microfiber towel.
- Rinse from top to bottom to ensure dirt and grime wash away properly.

Step 3: Protect with SILCA Ultimate Graphene Wax

- Apply directly to the frame, avoiding brake pads and rotors, or use a microfiber towel for controlled application.
- Let it dry for two to three minutes until a white waxy film forms, then buff with a clean microfiber towel for a slick, protected finish.

Step 4: Finish with SILCA Ultimate Ceramic Waterless Wash
