Default Trim Conditioner for Inner Fairing etc
I found this stuff from a post on the Road Glide Forum and tried it out today on my inner fairing a nd speedo/tach housing. Great stuff, made the plastic shin like it was painted. Its not greasy or dust collecting either like a lot of the other plastic detail conditioners.

I dont know how long it will last, but the post about it on the other forum said a few months between uses.

Eagle One Trim Gel (available at most auto parts stores)

I've used Pig Spit & Mothers Back to Black
The Mothers seems to last a little longer.

If you ever think you may want to paint the inner fairing and finish what HD didn't, some of those treatments (especially with silicone) may cause problems.

I think the best way to protect plastic is to keep out of the sun.This method wont work if you want to ride!
