Shining up that plastic

[engmedic]

What are you guys using to shine up you plastic?

[muff]

i use armor all

i highly dont recommend the plastic renew stuff, yeah it works and looks great, but it is very high matience and it will peel off if you dont keep up with it, it will make your plastic look worse then it was

[300exracer]

Yea I also use armorall.:)

[Krazy Kid]

:D

[Rider#11]

if you want the best shine,,get this stuff.....future floor cleaner...trust me its the best..itl sure manke it shine..put thin coats of it on..it in walmart

[2K1 300EX]

I heard Mop-N-Glo works pretty good but I have never tried it.

[BigThumper33]

Mop in Glo puts a pretty good shine on it, its alittle sticky though, but when its in the garage she looks good!

[Quadfather]

I use that 2001 stuff that comes in a bright green spray bottle. Try it, you'll like it.

[HiperEX]

armoral works for me, it doesnt make as much dirt stick like other things that make it shine, ive use gear oil a few times worked great but kinda sticky unless you wipe it off real good but i think it worked better than armoral

[300EX_HMF]

i use armor all tire foam!!! it works great trust me! just spray it on until u get it all covered and then just leave it set and then u will have a great shine even if your 4-wheeler is a little dusty!!!

[Woodsrider]

I used to use mop-n-glo, 'till I rolled the quad:( Now I just wash it off spray it with wet black tire dressing. And save up for a new set of plastic.

[Duner21]

2 coats of armoral works good for me.

[KrazyKid300ex]

the honda chit. works great. and i use that eagle wet tire shine stuff on my heel guadrs(stock) and tires,brake lines,everything that is black. honda polish everywhere else. ill post a pic of it in like april. i love cleaning my quad. its tooo cold now

Mop n Glo, or Future works good. Do you guys just squirt it on dry plastics and rub it in, or do you mix it with water when you wash it?

I've been using Lemon Pledge for quite some time and it seems to work really well! It even helps keep the dust away.

[.:01_eXrIdEr:.]

silkolene pro-prep....that stuff works really well if you don't wipe it off, just spray it on your quad, and it makes the plastic really shiny, also, when you go and ride, light mud and dirty water will flake up and it makes it really easy to clean off.

Put it on with either a lint free cloth, or a sponge. Not too thick, or it will foam a little in the tight spots and look bad. Just a couple of thin coats.

[fast330ex]

Turtle Wax 2000 with a wax pad

[d-14 rider 27]

w-d40. then wipe it off, works good for me

[BKVIEW4U]

WD-40 SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!! use mop-n-glo or future . armor all works ok but you get it all over your riding pants and seat

[d-14 rider 27]

wtf is wrong with wd-40???? it works good enough, and its cheap. sorry buddy, but i race my scoot, its not a show piece, and it only looks good on the ride up to practice.

[BKVIEW4U]

it may be cheap . it may work good enuff for you. but i think it is horrible. my quad is yellow. and its almost black after a day of riding. like a dust, dirt magnet. id rather have something that REPELS the dirt.......buddy

[300EXrider02]

that was kinda flamerish:D ....fight...fight....fight!! dont tak ethat man he made fun of wd-40! get him!:D :D

[smith]

wd-40 does work ok to make it shine and makes dirt fall off easier, but be careful, it also attacks the glossy finish on stock fenders!

and hey, no need to flame, hondafox400 asked for suggestions, and people are offering them, good or bad. If a suggestion "sucks", don't say that, say WHY it sucks instead!

[fuddrucker]

I use Future acrylic floor finish. It works freeking awesome. It also hides a lot of the small scratches when it dries. I put it on after I wash it and it will last through 4 or 5 washings. Great stuff and it does not make the bike spippery or attract dust.:macho

[northeast400]

can't we all just get along?

[BKVIEW4U]

yes we can . heres an experiment for u wd-40 lovers.

spray it on the end of a rubber hose .soak it good. let it sit for a few weeks. and go back . the end with wd40 on it will begin to rot 50 times faster than the one with no wd40 on it. it will slowly eat away the finsh on ur plastic too . use something else . wprks great as a bolt breaker. but its also a oxidant for rubber and plastics.

[jwisniew]

I was thinkin about gettin some plastic renew to take out some scratches and make the plastic look new. What complaints do u guys that've used it have?

[BKVIEW4U]

u talkin about plastic renu? it will ruin ur plastic. and it takes a week to sand it .

buy new plastic (which you'll be doing it u use plastic renu) or put some future floor wax on what u have

[luvmyex]
