that turned out sweet.i have to try it on some of my stuff.probably get a work out too
1985 ATC 250R. Team Red Trike
Any input on how it did on sunfaded plastic?
NOTE: I tried this method on my Clarke Sunfaded tank and it had no effect in recovering color.
Nice and shiny, but still orange as a
Take some 0000 steel wool ... coat the tank in wd40 . and rub ... I de-oxidize all my plastics this way ... then i take a power buffer on a drill and bring the plastics out to a better than stock shine ... the steel wool will need to be turned or replaced frequently but will give good results .... or use fine sandpaper and water and wet sand it and let the water clean the sandpaper then buff with your favorite wax and a power bufffer /// just my .02 cents worth ... I do it these ways all the time ...
IT'S A TEAM GREEN THANG !!!
The plastics are shiny as crap, but not red. They are colored burnt sierra orange.
Or will steel wool get that out and help me re color my tank?
How would i do black plastics, I tried a spot underneath the front fender, and all it did was scratch the crap out of it, and turn it white.

Your gonna need some different compound. Mothers seems to only work on plastic tanks. And even some it doesn't do real well.
This was a plastic 250r fender, any suggestions?
I started to wet sand the top of the fender, and the sanding seem work really well, just a little dull and white, but Chainsaw suggested some 3m buffing compound, so maybe that would work better.

I don't know what your using for compound, but its gonna need to be different than what is used on the tanks. They are very different plastics. I don't think the injection molded fenders are nearly as porous as the gas tanks.
3M Perfect-It II Fine Cut rubbing compound.
thats what he used, and for some reason i just assumed you could clean up fenders this way too...
Lots of wet sanding to do this weekend...
