The product is called "black chrome". But you can use it on red yellow, or any color. I think it actually works better on collors other than black. The stuff was under three bucks, and i imagine you could buy it at any autoparts store, or places like meijer, or menards. Truthfully i bought it so long ago, I cant remember where i got it. I just never thought of using it on my quad. I actually just did this, so I could post before and after pics.....but i ran out of the stuff so the back fenders dont look as good as they should.

Here is a pic of what the bottle looks like, and some before and after pics of the plastic.

I like using that spray on tire foam. Spray it on and let it sit for a min and then wipe it in. Works great for me. Thanks for the tip though! :)

Does that stuff dry to a hard finish like mop-n-glo? Or does it stay wet? I use Eagle One tire dressing on my plastics. it works great as well. Here are some old pics of mine before and after

Armorall is a good product, and thats what i always used to use. I like it because dust doesnt stick to it much. But if your really looking for a showroom shine, something that these pictures dont do a justice....and something that armorall would go home crying about. Try this black chrome stuff.
