My son got his new Breeze into some road oil and when we cleaned it up there were stains in the plastic.Does anyone know how or if these stains can be removed. Brad

My wife is a composite engineer. She said try-using Crisco, the kind that comes in a can i.e. paste form, not the liquid form. It has an enzyme it that will break up oil particles that attach to plastic moicules. Let it sit for about 10 minutes and wipe it away.

Let me know if this work’s. If not I’ll send her back to College.

Use Laquer Thinner I use it on my bike and it works great and is easy to find.

Carefull with the laquer thinner, it takes the shine off of new plastic.
