Application of the product couldn't be simpler. If your bike's really dirty then it pays to do a water-wash with soap and detergent first, but if you've only a layer of fine grime then just spray the Bike Ezee onto paintwork and components, then, using a microfibre cloth – best for wicking away dirt from the surface – work it over minor patches of dirt, and polish to a shine.
Bike Ezee certainly works, as you can see moisture bobbling off anything you've applied the stuff to, and it actively helps to prevent dirt from adhering to the bike as the weekly deep clean took far less time than previously. It's also safe to use around disc brake rotors.
It's good value – I've seen seen similar products for around a tenner, such as Muc-Off Silicon Shine and Pedro’s Bike Lust – and the banana with a hint of chocolate aroma is a definite plus point for me.

The shine isn't as long lasting as polish, but that's to be expected for a product that cleans and polishes in one package.
