Hi Guys

Just purchased a Black Yamaha WR125X, and I have to say I love this motorbike except for one thing: the plastic panels. They scratch very easily :madflame: . Does anyone know of a good polish or wax that will get rid of these scratches and give a nice shiny finish? any help would be much appreciated.

Just a quick question or 3, How are you scratching them? and how often? as mine are the same as the day I put them on, 3 years ago after respray, oh and which panels are you talking about? Do you go off road with it cos that will scratch the shit out of any panel & the only way you will avoid it is to take them off, more questions than answers I'm afraid. :jossun:

I had this problem with my dt, kept scratching rear panels and they hold the dirt very well! I used a product called Xerapol, bought from eBay, very good stuff, just sand down scratches, apply solution and buff away! Genius, can be used on visors and clear plastics too....

Hope this helped bud
