Quick Tip – Muc-Off Waterless Wash

By Sheri Rosenbaum

When you’re traveling or on the trail without access to water, Muc-Off’s High-Performance Waterless Wash is a great option. I took some with on a recent MTB trip to use post- ride. When we got back to the cabin, we conducted a non-scientific test.

I used the Muc-Off cleaner on my frame, while Mitch used water from his water bottle to clean his. The dirt easily came off my bike leaving it looking clean and shiny. Mitch, on the other hand, had a much tougher time. I wish I thought to take a video of the test, but was happy to see Muc-Off created their own video showing how easy it works…even comes with dramatic music.

If Waterless Wash worked so well on a MTB, I can only imagine how well it will work on my road bikes.

Muc-Off’s High Performance Waterless Wash comes in a 25.3 FL OZ/750 ML spray pump bottle for $17.99 USD.

A while back I reviewed several other products in the Muc-Off line. Check it out here: Muc-Off Bike Cleaner Review Roundup.

    Does it also degrease (i.e., clean the drivetrain) or do I need another product for that?

      Hi John, it is for the frame. Use Muc-Off’s degreaser product for the chain. Per the link in the Quick Tip check out all their cleaning products. Big fan of the line. https://www.roadbikerider.com/muc-off-bike-cleaner-review-roundup/.

    I’m curious about this product and would like to hear the experience of others. My sense of logic tells me that spraying Muc-Off on a dirty bike would create a slurry of abrasive particles. I would think that wipine this slurry with a rag would abrade the finish of the bike. For example, I am careful to not wipe my eye glasses without rinsing them first. The rinse removes the abrasive dust particles and extends the life of my lenses. In the past I would wipe my glasses when they were dusty (coated with abrasive particles) and in short order my lenses became scratched. So I’m asking, is my logic flawed? I would love to hear experiences.
