Anyone know how to get to stress marks out of the blue plastic?

 

u mean like when the plastic turns white at a bend... if so then just take a ligher and warm the plastic up and the it will turn blue again

 

I just paint mine....I got this stuff by Krylon called Fusion that bonds to all plastics. I paint my fenders and tank cover with a few coats then clear coated the fenders...I wish I would have do the tank cover..it's start to scratch.

But no more stress marks! Cause mine had them all over the place.

Hey had the same problem with the blue plastics on my raptor it was pretty bad but heard that a heat gun would do the trick.. it does it does it perfectly too my raptor looks 20xxx's better id highly suggest investing in a 30 heat gun and going over your bike with it.. be careful around the stickers though.

 

Ok thanks for your help

 

Green plastic show's those stress marks as well. I noticed that on some of the KFX's running around here.

 

Anything that heats up nice and hot works good. Hair driers dont quite get hot enough. I just did this with a "super" hair drier, looked something Tim Allen would put together on Home Improvement. When you have something that works you can watch the color go right back into the stress mark. Be careful though not to hold it on there to long, it'll melt it too much.
