    Default cleaning the phantom?

    I was just about to post this question on behalf of ddeyle, when I saw he logged his fist post.

    Anyway, I already typed this much...

    What have you found (or what has your dealer recommended) for the flat/matte painted Phantom body panels?

    I have a brand new flat black/matte helmet and use Plexus on it - really cleans and protects and yet does not attract dust or make it shiny - give it a try - shop around for price - many places charge $19 for a 16 oz bottle - you can find it for $13. A can goes a long way

    As a service adviser and salesman for Vancouver Island's only Spyder dealership... BRP recommends that NO polish or cleaners be used on the flat black panel kit. Wash with mild detergent only!!!!

    Bleach...straight and pure, like your scotch...and don't use any gloves...be tough! If you mix up your scotch and bleach, that's fine too!

    And a can of Pledge works good to shine it up (not on the Phantom though)!

    Scented products attract bees.

    I hate bees.

    My dealer called me a couple days, out of the blue, and said he had just received a bulletin from BRP to not Wax, etc. the matte black panels....recommended warm soap & water.

    I tried a little black magic on a small area that can't be seen and didn't like the outcome.

    So will stick with just the soap and water routine until someone has another solution.
