White Plastics?

[Dale512]

How does White Plastic hold up? Does it show scratches real easy, how about staining? Does it stain easy and how is it too keep clean?

it scratches the same as any other color....it will stain a bit easier...but being white you can use stronger cleaning agents on the tuff areas to get it white again.

I've had white for about 3 years now and it has held up pretty well. There are a few areas where it is darkening but I can usually just use some mineral spirits to clean it up real good.

Here is a pic of it after a wash and a coat of Future Acrylic floor finish. The floor finish REALLY shines it up, hides the scratches, and makes it look like new. This works really well on white.

I have a red 300ex and it (floor finish) looks great on it as well, BUT, after a wash, it has some milky white patches and looks dull until I re-apply. On white though, it does not seem to do this.

I just bought a set of new white oem for the R and trashed them the first time out. The area under the gas tank is now permenantly stained from my legs rubbing it. I won't get white next time around:(

take some Comet or Ajax on a wet rag to it, it should come out, thats what I usually do with those stains where my boots always scuff the plastic.
