 First let me start by saying I do not work for or get anything from any products that I endorse in any post.  We all know how mud can dry out your skin as well as your plastics and has the potential to leave unsightly stains. I use a 303 product called aerospace protectant. I also use this on my boat and it works great. It is also commonly used on RVs.  Think of it as a moisturizing sunscreen for your plastic  and vinyl. I use it after every wash to bring back that rich new plastic look. It also makes it easier to clean the next time. It is a little pricey but well worth it, and a little bit goes a long way. It's super easy to apply, so easy I almost made it all the way around my ATV before  I thought to take a couple of pictures. Give it a try I promise you won't be disappointed. These were taken after a good wash with soap and water then dried. I hope the ole lady doesn't get mad at me for posting a picture of her. LOL!

Nice. Works a lot like the Maxima SC-1 I use.

Yeah I suppose, except I don't believe this is a silicone-based product. And won't leave an oily residue. But I've never used the sc-1 so I have no real comparison.

I recently tried the Rustoleum Re-Color that is advertised on those late night infomercials and found that to be quite good at returning the luster to dull plastic. I was getting ready to sell my ATV, and after years of riding in the PA woods here, the plastics were faded and had no shine at all. At $20 a bottle (and its a small bottle!), it too isn't cheap, but I was able to do the entire ATV from top to bottom, and it looked as good as the day I bought it.

The only downside, and its not RREALY a downside, is .. the smell !! it smells like they attempted to camouflage the chemical smell of the product with some fragrant add-in that really burns your nostrils. If you DO use the product, apply it outside (out of direct sunlight) and make sure it does not get wet. Then leave it outside for at least 4 hours. The smell will remain on there for a good week before it dissipates.
