#1 - do not buy Black ATV's ... the plastic looks like chit in no time.

#2 - after you did no heed advice #1, buy Plastic Renew and use it religiously.

or Krylon Fusion Black paint [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] I painted mine a while back. Im bout to wax it and see what happens though. If it dosent look like chit ill post a pic. *edit* dernit. Krylon looks "decent" but its just dosent look smooth. Its shiny and all but has an "orange peel" surface.

I use Armor All to shine my plastic. I just stay out of the brush, and keep my feet from dragging my plastic and it keeps the scratches down.

I use pledge. Shines it the best it can be and a slick feel. Less wind resistence.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Wet sand it with fine sand paper and buff it real good. That'll do the trick.

Some of that quick wax works well, keeps it half way shinny and watter just beads up and dirt dosen't really stick to bad....
