    Pledge....have used it on all my airplanes (metal and fabric) since the first one in 1973. After each flight mist the leading edge and windshield, immediately wipe. Bugs come off easily. When the tops of the wings get dusty, same deal. Simple Green Aircraft (or GoJo) for stains on the belly. Follow with a good wax job a couple times of year.

    FWIW...YMMV!

    Thanks for posting guys! I see a lot of people using dish soap and water, and while that works great, it also will strip any sealant you have on the paint. I agree with the "no water" comments as well. I used to have a Harley back in the day and if you washed it you would have to use a high speed blower to get the water out of the nooks and crannies. I switched to a waterless wash product back then, and now we have developed our own. You just have to be careful when you are using soap and hose because water has a funny way of finding places you wouldn't think, then sitting there and causing trouble. Great stuff - keep it coming!
