if its supposed to be white=use bleach
if it aint supposed to be white=dont use bleach

it should work good on the plastic..i know it works on hard rubber good. so it should be fine

ive used bleach to clean vinal siding in a preasure washer worked great.If you have a garden sprayer try that.But id take the plastic off first.and the seat.May want to try mixing with some water too.

I used an old windex bottle and sprayed it on, waited afew minutes, then wiped it off with an old rag. Worked alright.

I wouldn't use bleach...... it tends to pull your plastic's natural "oils" out and make your plastic brittle in the long run.

i bleached my white rear plastic on my 250x. it turned the plastic dull, well more dull than stock already is. what cleaned it up and got out the scratches was 1000 grit sandpaper. but only on white! then some formula 2001 and out the door.
