What are you guys using on the plastic to bring a luster and shine back into it?

I'm trying to do a lil polishing to the 500 Sportsman I just purchased this past weekend for my daughter. Plan on doing a photo op with her and it because I imagine this is the last time It will ever be this clean on the farm and I'd like to make it look as close to new as I can for her. Just a lil Daddy extra

What do you fellas use to clean the black plastic up on these machines and make them shine again?

What about the bumper gaurds that have that coating on them? I tried some mothers polish tonite on the surface but it didn't do much. Nothing like it did the wheels. Sure didn't bring any shine or restore any color to the black on the bumper gaurds. The wheels was another story. They look perty now except for the niks and boo boo's the atv experienced before us.

Thanks in advance for any tips or suggestions you have. I appreciate it.

Big Mofugger.

Look into the liquid performance products. I would get a bottle of cycle wash,and a product they make called topkote. It kinda restores the shine and mud won't stick as much.

Tire shine, Pledge, WD-40, Wax. I'm sure there's more but that's just what I've used on mine with great results.
