Engine Werks: The Best Motorcycle Engine Cleaner on the Market

Heat, road film and dust dull a black motor fast. Engine Werks restores powder-coated engines with a water-based spray that dries on its own, no wiping required.

Motors take the worst of it: heat, dust, road film and oily residue. On a black powder-coated engine, that buildup turns a deep, rich finish gray and tired, and most cleaners only make it worse. Car engine sprays and heavy automotive degreasers are too aggressive for a powder-coated finish, and basic soap doesn't do enough.

Engine Werks was made for exactly this problem. It's a water-based, solvent-free motorcycle engine cleaner that renews a powder-coated motor's finish with a simple spray and dry formula. No scrubbing, no wiping, no buffing.

How Engine Werks Works for Cleaner, Better-Looking Motors

Engine Werks does two jobs at once. It lifts the dull film that builds up on a powder-coated motor and brings back the deep black tone, then leaves behind a protective layer that repels dust and dirt, so your engine stays cleaner between rides.

We tested the formula on a range of bikes before it ever went in a bottle. It consistently restored color without streaking, spotting or changing the texture of the powder coat.

How to Use Engine Werks

  1. Let the engine cool. Always work on a cool, dry motor, never right after a ride.
  2. Spray it on. Mist Engine Werks evenly over the powder-coated surfaces of the motor.
  3. Let it dry. No wiping or buffing needed. It air dries on its own.
  4. Reapply as needed. Use it again whenever the finish starts to dull to keep the protective layer working.
