    Default What do you use for Cleaning and Protecting the matte black bits?

    I used Maguiars Ultimate Black Plastic Restorer on my 2008 GS. It did a great job on certain parts - the back rest, the mud flaps...but didn't do so well on some of the other black matte finish plastic - the dash, the passenger grip bars. It seems that not all the black matte finish parts are the same plastic make-up. Has anyone else found this? What do you all use on these other areas, like the dash, grip bars, plastic covers over the steering arms? Thank you for your input!

    Back in my Jeep days, I used 303 Protectant for the fenders, hardtop, and any other plastic that was on the outside.
    It's a staple for the Jeepers that like a clean vehicle after the trail riding is done.

    It works well on the Spyder too!

    I use Nu-Finish on the painted white bits and original Armor-All on everything else. Spray a little on a rag and wipe on.
