Default Whats your favorite plastic cleaner

I was just curious what everyone used to clean the pastic on their quads to give that like new shine? Ive used everything from w-d 40, to any of the car shine products. I know they are a magnet for dust and dirt for a while but they sure do look nice too. Also what do you guys use to protect the rims from rusting? I did a search for this and didnt find anything so I hope im not asking any duplicate ?'s.

I have always used Plexus cleaners. They seem to work well!

Although I haven't used it...I have heard some tremedous reports about Plexus Plastic Cleaner - Introducing Plexus Plastic Cleaner

"We tested Plexus® , and found the product to be better than the manufacturer claimed." -4Wheel Drive & Sport Utility Magazine

"Nothing we've tried made the car look this good, this quick." - Stock Car Racing (Magazine)

"We have seen plenty of concoctions hyped as the ultimate plastic cleaner, protectant, and polish. After a few test squirts on our perpetually grungy face shields, windscreens, etc. ... we were converted." -Motorcyclist Magazine

I use any kind of tire shine that is silicon based. Shines up good and mud falls off with just a water hose.

I've been told that regular old Mop and Glow from the grocery store does a good job of restoring old plastics.
