What's the best way to clean a bare Ti frame? I have no idea what to use on my Legend.

+1 for sure...cheap and readily available...dollar store variety works fine as well.

Moots puts pledge on their frames before they ship them out. I have used it and it works perfect.

They even mention it at the end of their factory tour video.

What they said. I use it on the Fierte with good results.

Joe Ingram, former IF employee told me to use "Lava" hand cleaner, or any type of cleaner that has pumice in it to clean shot peened ti. I have done it a handful of times, and it really works well. Sometimes I think Lemon Pledge messes with the decals, unless you make it a point to miss those areas.
Forgot to mention...put a little elbow grease into it to work the pumice down into the ti that is shot peened. Probably not what you want on bare ti now.....will leave scratches.
