just wanted to let you guys know if you want to make your quad look nice and shinny use some black Magic tire wet, it really works. apply generously and Let it sit on for 5min and wipe it off. stays shinny for long. it also helps to repell water and mud.
also how do you get the white stress marks off plastic?

Thanks for the tip. About the marks, you can use a hair dryer if you are careful or stickers!

I dont think you can do anything for stress marks other than replace the plastic, not that I am aware of.

I too suffer this problem with a blue warrior.

I've used tire products on my plastic ond other parts for awhile but never tried the black magic. Thanks for the tip. Oh by the way watch the seat, having a slick seat is no fun[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

Use Automotive Leather cleaner/protector on the seat. It makes it nice and shiny without the slipping!!!!

LISTEN to shastadog!!! i made the mistake of armoralling my motorcycle seat a long time ago. man talk about a stressful ride! i tried the blackmagic too and it worked good. my first time i didn't wipe it off good enough and the first tripm through the dust my fenders looked like they were 20 years old. works good though as long as you wip it down good. the hair drier works good but theirs no way to completely get rid of the white marks. if they are real light they will go away completely. just don't get it to hot, you will be able to see the plastic starting to get real shinny and thats time to let it cool down. don't touch it while it's hot either because besides the burn on you finger it will also leave a finger print on the plastic.
