Using WEICON products
For four years now, my colleague Philipp has been the owner of a Harley-Davidson FXSTS. The motorcycle is one of his biggest passions. He has already been on quite a few tours with the Softtail Springer model. As soon as the sun comes out, Philipp and his bike are out, too. When spring comes, Philipp is on the road every weekend, he also likes to go for a ride after work. When you love your Harley, you also pay attention to the right care and maintenance. For that reason, Philipp uses WEICON products.
WEICON Cleaner Spray S
For the chrome details, he uses WEICON Cleaner Spray S , which removes oil residues and dirt easily. The Cleaner spray can also be used for cleaning the carburettor, where dirt particles tend to accumulate. These can damage the carburettor membrane over time.
WEICON adhesives
Everybody knows the powerful sound of the V-twin of a Harley-Davidson. While driving, the motorcycle is exposed to heavy vibrations. As a result, the nameplate on the shock absorber and the casing of the turn signal had fallen off after Philipp’s many tours. Depending on the materials that are bonded, different adhesives are suitable. Philipp attached the nameplate Harley Davidson with WEICON Easy-Mix RK-7000 Structural Acrylic Adhesive, as this adhesive is perfect for bonding metal to metal. With WEICON Easy RK-7200 Structural Acrylic Adhesive, he bonded the casing of the turn signal. The RK-7200 is well-suited for bonding plastic to metal and, in addition, it is transparent, which provides a nicer and cleaner look.
WEICON Copper Paste
On the motorcycle’s cylinder is a flange, which holds the exhaust and cylinder together. This flange is fastened with screws. To prevent the screws from rusting and seizing due to vibration, moisture and dirt, Philipp maintains these components with Copper Paste regularly.
Many of our products can be used for the care, maintenance and repair of different vehicles – even if bicycle, van or horse trailer. For more tips, have a look here.
