Try baby oil. No kiddin. I have some friends who race cars on dirt tracks. After they clean the car, they use a garden sprayer full of baby oil and spray the underside, the fenders, the tires, etc. This has stopped the problem of mud building up during races. It works great on ATV's too! And, its environmentally sensitive!

You will be surprised but Pledge hides the scratches well. If you have scratches you need to remove you need a plastic scratch removal product. I found this one by searching and I have used it on heavily scratched goggles and plastic with great success.

Holy crap! Pledge eh? I'll have to try that. I normally do nothing to beautify our machines, but being as Pledge sounds easy, I'm all for easy...

You will be amazed at how the dirt and scratches gets covered up when you apply Pledge or even WD-40 over the plastic[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Car wax works fine as long as you get a few coats on the plastic when it's new and not scratched. Some colors look better than others. Black/white I use the wax, red it's Lemon Pledge.
