You can spray tire foam all over your bike before you go riding and the mud is a lot easier to wash off. It will also my your bike shine on the way to a ride.

I use pledge. Pulls the shin right back into the plastic, and the mud and dirt seem to come off a lot easier than without. Hides some of those small scratches also. Just be sure your plastic is warm (sunlight works great) and wipe it with a dry cloth after putting it on.

Nothing bout' nothing, but I use Plexus. It is made for atv plastic to bring out the shine or bring back the shine on oxidized plastic. You can pick it up at the local atv shop. But, I warn you, it doesn't do worth a darn if you put tire shiners on your plastic first. I did that, and didn't like that my plastic seemed to get gunky. Hope this helps.
