I have try many things. Most shine it up a little, but ends up turning into a somewhat dull, dirty finish. I hate this. I'd like to know what you guys use to really shine up this red plastic up. What do you use (in detail)? I'd appreciate you're help. Thanks.

I use the 2001 (cant remember the exact name) stuff like armorall but has a UV protector in it thats suposta help with the fading?, I just put a bunch on, wipe it, then buff it a couple minutes later, works good.. If its realllly dull, mabe try armorall "tire wet" not the foam kind, the regular spray kind.. or go to the honda dealer and get some "hondabrite"

Mop n Glow floor shine works great the dust doesnt stick to it like most things, and it makes the plastic look like the shine it had when you bouhght it.

I also use the STP son of a gun. Yes, it does attract the dirt but when you put it on after you wash it, it leaves a good shine to it. As for the dirt? Its going to get dirty no matter what!!!!

I use ArmorAll Interior protectant. It has UV blockers that prevent fading and it doesn't attract dust. All you do is spray it on, wait a minute, and wipe it off with a soft rag. It only lasts between washings though.

Armoral has a new product out, but I cannot remember the name. It looks simular to the regular Armoral, but its much better. You spray it on, leave it soak for a few minutes, then gently buff it off. It will make that dull plastic shine like new! I use it everytime I ride my bike, wash it, then Armoral it.
