    i've use wax on it before, but doesnt last very long.
    and degrease products that shines but doesnt even last for 1 minute.

    tire shine probly isnt gonna last that long...

    Rub all your plastic down with Vasolene and get that super shine going on :) J/K don't do that or your engine will be a dirt ball in a week
