Thanks Robbie no chance of a through draft as it's in a block of garages 5o yards from my house

I was hoping that there is something specific for the job and ok for rubber and plastics

scrubbing isn't that easy as some much is in very hard to reach places on the bike

I have a real problem with this stuff !

 My bike lives in a garage with no ventalation no heating  the tempreture gos up and down as well as the moisture level

mildew has alway been an issue but its really bad now

 clean my bike often enough but not very often a deep clean panels off sort of job


 well I had the seat off and the side panels and the bike is covered in soft white furry stuff anything thats black is covered and stands out a mile , but its pretty much everwhere over the whole bike !

before I start spray god know what all over the place

 any recomendations  for clearing it it on pipe work cables hand grips you name it

Im guessing acf 50 after cleaning

chris i  love the sound of a nice loud exhaust car or bike but when its on and off from 7ppm till 2am and byond mixed in with tyres screaming it doesnt take long to drive you up the wall
 loud car and bike pass through all the time , ill listen  some sound good passing through isnt an issue

I am after some advice
 when i brought my house behind was fields now its an industrail estate
 and over the last five years the problem has got worse and worse
 now every night we are subjected to cars roaring around racing tyres screaming and people shouting
The cars have massive exhaust and can be heard the other side of the town over a mile away  the do actually race and have drawn a starting gride on the road , the also drifting  and spining ( spinning=driving around and around tyres screeching around a rounabout)
now a new one, exhaust igniters , these sound like a machine gun going off some times this will go on till 2am in the morning
 the culprits dont care and have bragged on face book that the police cant do nothing !
and the police seem to treat it as , as long as its out of the town centre its not realy an issue !
I can sit in my front room and hear this over the tv and in the summer we HAVE to close all the windows because of the noise !
 my local counsilors are now getting sick of it but again are powerless
and advice would be welcome
 
 move ? I wish
