Hey all,

I just bought a new 09' GS500f and will be riding it outside in all kinds of wet and nasty weather. Just a quick question. My bike is black, What protectant/cleaner would you all recommend for the black plastic that won't scratch it up? I have heard armorall works well but don't know about that.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Doug

I dont have fairings as i have the E model. But i would thinnk that you could use car was on the plastics. Check with someone with a gs500F though.

Plexus is recommended by a lot of people on plastic parts, including windscreen, face shield, and painted plastics. I use it too.

Plexus or I use Meguiar's Ultimate Detailer, both on everything.

Do you use Plexus on painted metal, like the tank? What about unpainted metal, like the chrome handlebar? I wasn't sure if that's ok or not.

I use a decent car wax on the plastics and metal. I have used Plexus as well but the smell of that stuff makes me sick, I feel like I'm doing damage to myself The Maquires is good stuff as well and you can use it on everything. It's quick and easy and seems to stay on there after awhile.
