How to keep FENDERS in GOOD CONDITION?

[ivan-083]

Hey guys I have just purchased NOS 200es rear fenders and have done a full resto. I want to keep the fenders in good condition so they dont fade as iam planning of never selling this trike now. Whats the best way to keep the fenders from losing their colour. Is ARMOUR ALLl good and just spray that on the fenders once every few weeks? Has anyone got any good ideas? Thanks for the feedback.

I'm pretty sure the sun is the only thing that fades the plastics, keeping it out of the direct sun should help, or an atc cover.

Thanks Ps2Fixer, ill keep that in mind. Its only used for vineyard work so ill keep it under the vines for extra shade.

Yeah try keeping it out of the sun as much as possible and if you can find an atc cover that would be good!! say if you had some work to do in the one spot you could chuck the cover on to keep it from the elements!!

Yeah jake a have a cover for it, just going to try and keep it in good condition after all the work I have done to it! People are saying to leave it in the garage but stuff that I'll be using it everyday! Painting the front rim Saturday but still need a front axle collar? So I'll get my friend to make one on his lathe! Ps can't wait to get those 200es fenders!

Find a plastic spray that has a UV inhibitor in it. I know in my Ski Nautique for the vinyl interior I use Babe's vinyl protectant. It's expensive as hell but it works and doesn't give it that slippery feel. I have used it on the seat of my 200ES since I got it also.
