I'm only gonna say this one more time. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Mop n Glow (in the blue bottle). You'll find it at any grocery store or dept. store in the floor cleaning isle. IT works better than any plastic renew, pledge, armor all, etc. Apply as many coats as you want with a lint free cloth and your jaw will drop at the shine.

It will have more luster than a Christmas penny, it will.

This is a very old MX secret.

Yep, mop and glo is what I use. Works really well, just leaves a little cloudy residue sometimes when you wash it so you have to scrub a little to get excess off

The service manager where I work said to use tire cleaner. It seems to give plastic a nice shine. The foaming kind. Just spray it on and let it sit for a few minutes and wipe it back off. I've also heard that WD40 will give it a good shine.

Tire Shine works but doesn't last that long. If you do use it, though, be aware that if you ever decide to paint anything within 100 ft of the area that you put the Tire Shine on, that afore mentioned Tire shine will make your life miserable. It apparently has some super polymer or something that will not come off and will not let paint stick. It beads right off of it.

Try some armorall. That stuff makes it shine real well, and also protects it.

I use Armorall on my Z250. Just check out my pics page. In the picture of it sitting in the garage it looks almost brand new. Wrong! It has been rolled twice, covered in so much mud ya can't even tell what color it is, and scratched all to heck by my dang little brother driving his toy cars up and down the fenders. The Armorall makes a huge difference, but nothing like that showroom shine.
