This Trick with WD-40 Can Help Keep Your ATV Clean After a Ride

If you want an easier time cleaning your ATV after a muddy ride, try spraying WD-40 on the wheel wells and underpinnings. Before you hit the trails, grab a can of WD-40 Multi-Use Product and spray it generously on the fender wells, undercarriage, axles, suspension arms, and skid plates of your dirt bike, ATV, truck, or 4×4 SUV. It’s best to start with a surface that is relatively clean and free of mud before applying WD-40. After each ride, simply hose off the vehicle with pressurized water to remove any excess soil and dirt. Even stubborn clumps of mud will come off easily with water, thanks to WD-40’s lubricating properties, which create a protective layer against contaminants on metal and plastic parts.

While WD-40 is not suitable for lubricating motorcycle chains or ball bearings, it is an effective cleaner for chains. It easily removes dirt, gunk, and soil particles. Just remember to lightly wipe off any excess WD-40 after spraying to help repel dust.
