Hi Joey, I was looking at that very same tip today. The product in question is not really a "bike cleaner", it is just this kind of foam silicon that people use on the tires to make them look shiny (like if there were wet), and in other part like dashboard or so. I think to use a good degrease is the right way to go, but the STP by make all part to look shiny and clean. Please be extremely careful in using this products on the bike tires (I do not recommend it at all).
