Default restoring the plastic

Ive seen a few products to restore and bring back the shine on your fenders and remove small scratches. Has anyone used any of these products and how do they work? Any recomendations on which to use and is the product worth buying. I have a 2002 warrior and the fenders are a bit dull (black) and have a few scratches. Any tips would be appriciated.

Try some tire shine foam.........I accidentally got some on my fenders.....and when I wiped it off and buffed it a bit, it put a better shine on it than anything else I'd ever used.

If you think about it, a scratch in plastic isn't like a scratch in paint. Your not going to remove it unless you fill it. I don't know how to do that but for bringing back the shine I found a product called F2 made by Turtle Wax...realy restores the shine. I use it every time I wash the quads. Dont use to much on the seat though...tends to get a little slick.
