The thing with Armor All is that it isn't as long lasting as other options...

Other then a brief touch up once in a while,I only spend any real time fully treating the inner fairing surface a couple of times a year with Ice and it holds up well.

Mothers Back To Black works for the inner fairing, grips, and floor boards.

Best thing I found for inner fairing is 303. It's a marine protectant for vinyl and stands up to the sun really well.

I am going to have mine painted or buy one painted to white ice pearl. My top color.

Our dealer has a special, new painted fairing installed $599. I have heard that they are a pain to change out. Not sure if that is true. I was planning to put the painted one on with the chrome cap kit.

Once the plastic starts to turn white theres not much you can do except paint it.
The plastic around the tach and speedo did this on my '06 Road Glide and those plastic protectant sprays did not restore the color.
The best thing to do is keep the plastic covered while sitting in the sun light or paint the plastic.

The best thing for an inner fairing is paint. Put the chrome rings around the guages and she will really pop.

My 09 street glide has been fading badly. Was in for 20k tuneup & told the service guy. He said it was the Florida sun. Came back to get bike & he said they didn't have time to change the inner out today but wanted to set an apointment up with me. Asked if I could take it to my painter to paint. He asked the manager & they said YES. Picked it up this morning & dropped it off at my painter. Pick it up Wed & drop off the bike Thursday.

Aerospace 303 or Mothers Back To Black. Both are excellent products. 303 is about the only thing you can use on rubber tires or leather to preserve and look good. Mothers products can be found at most Walmarts and 303 can usually be purchased at boat dealerships.
