How to revitalize plastics?

[Rabbithunter]

My YTM's plastic were horribly sun-dried when I bought it. I have got all the sun dried areas cleaned up and the bright yellow is back but want to make it shine again. What products do/can you use to make it have the glossy look back?

dont mess around with all the 'ways to make plastic shine'

i have asimple way of doing it..

get your self a buffer and two pads, one wool and one foam,
get abottle of maguires fine cut cleaner and a bottle of race glaze ( not sure all places that sell it but i know napa and places that supply body shops with stuff can get it)

buff the plastics with the wool pad and the fine cut cleaner, than repet, than switch to the foam pad and the race glaze and go over it twice, with the race glaze you use a small amound and run the buffer arou8nd with it tell it polishes away, than wipe clean with a micro fiber towel..

this will give you a nice bright like new factory shine and also will remove some of the fine scratches and scuffs


than when your done you can buff your car or truck with the same stuff and that will be nice and shiney to

PC1 makes a great product that when you sand your fenders right (it has directions) then you aply the coating and your done.

i have used the same bottle on 3 different ATVs and all 3 were different colors. all 3 turned out perfect.
