When I began my career it started with formal training. My training was all about technique (How) and working with the concept that form always follows function. I was educated and trained with ideal situations in a controlled environment. Following my training, I worked in my chosen field and experienced professional growth and recognition. I then changed employers. My first technical trainer with the new company, whom I looked to as a mentor and later a friend, encouraged me to learn not only How a specific product worked but Why. My friend’s encouragement was extremely helpful and necessary. How does this translate to cleaning and detailing products you ask? Companies design products that work if the user follows the directions specifically and limits the products use to the applications specified. When cleaning an automobile there are different considerations then if cleaning a motorcycle, boat, or anything else. An automobile has limited surface concerns, while the others have multiple surface materials and limitations. Why the product works is based on the formulas and the surfaces to be cleaned or shined. Moto-Tec Products are designed to be safe for multiple surface applications. Some products utilize the ingredients while moist to remove debris or polish (Moto-Tec Magic Wash or Moto-Tec Super Wash) while others work as the ingredients dry and lift the debris from the surface to clean or polish (Moto-Tec Ultra Gloss Bike Wipes or Ultra Gloss Polish). When we learn not only How, but Why a product works for us we have the confidence to expect a consistent result.

Moto-Tec Products begin with naturally occurring ingredients to meet our strict requirements to be Safe, Effective and Environmentally-Friendly. So many cleaning and detailing products today are manufactured chemicals and or petroleum distillates. When I look at some of the products on store shelves, I see warnings and hazard statements that are almost as lengthy as some of the prescription drug ads which we are inundated with daily. Personally when I hear some of the disclaimers, I think it better to just deal with the condition rather than the side effects. Sometimes we question if the safe and nature-based products work as well as those which we can manufacture. We must remember with many products today, they are only a synthetic of that which is found in nature. One of our customers offered this quote, “Your products do just what you said they would do. Great Stuff” Laurence Yaste. Aristotle said, In all things of nature there is something of the marvelous.

My wife and I just returned from a camping trip in the North Georgia Mountains. We truly love camping and being in the great outdoors. We take walks, maybe fish a little, enjoy the scenery and wildlife during the day, and then at night just sitting around a dancing campfire. We believe we have a responsibility to do our best, to steward that which was entrusted to us by God. That is why Moto-Tec products are Environmentally Friendly. We want to offer products that work to Clean,Shine,and Inspire without negatively affecting our environment.

The key to cleaning and detailing a dirty motorcycle is to have products that work for you, and then developing your own system. Our products are designed to work for you, instead of you having to work the product. This seems basic but is really where we are different. We have had many new customers, after seeing how easily and quickly we can clean and detail a motorcycle, become our greatest advocates. We want our products to be EFFECTIVE so more time can be spent riding, instead of working. Check out these videos and see for yourself. I have provided the links or you can check them out on our website.

Why should I use Moto-Tec Products? This is a very valid question and one I encourage. Moto-Tec Products were formulated to be some of the “Safest” cleaning and detailing products available. When I hear “Safest” what does that really mean. Moto-Tec offers products that were formulated beginning in 2003 after consulting with some of the leading minds behind the leading products on the market. Moto-Tec Products are both safe for the user and the object on which they are being used. When we clean or detail a motorcycle for example, we have multiple surfaces made of various materials. Some products may be safe for one material but not another. When we clean or detail a boat we might consider the effect on the environment following the runoff. If we are cleaning a car, ATV or RV we might consider what would happen if our pet drank the water. These are all considerations, but the one I believe we overlook most is the affect some of these products have on the user. We are seeing today the growth of dermal(Skin) medications. Our skin is the largest organ of our body and when we encounter products that are harmful, it cannot be good for our overall health. This is why “Safe” represents the S in our acronym have you” SEEN” Moto-Tec Products.
