Faded 1g wing

[eazy]

Hey guys here are some pics of the wing on my talon. As you can see its not in to bad of shape. It has lost all its shine though, and after a good wash everything looks good expect the faded plastic wing. Anyone have this problem and recommend any products that would help restore the wing.

Unbolt it, take it to a paint shop, and have them shoot another coat of clear onto it. That should keep it looking good for awhile and it shouldnt cost more than 50$ or atleast not around here for a layer of clear. If you want it to look real good before you take it wetsand it some. Does it have any clear on it now whatsoever? Have ya tried to buff it any? I dunno mine hasnt started fading YET so I'm not sure.

From what I can tell, there is not much clear left on it. In the picture you can see the sides and bottom of the wing are a little bit more shinny, probably because the sun doesn't hit that area as much. So there isn't any type of wax that would help? Body shops here are outrageous with there prices.

People have had good results with a product called New Black, might be also called Nu Black.

I used Meguiers Scratch-X to clean up some of the crap marks, and whatever was on there. Although it obviously won't bring the luster/shine back to it since its just plastic. That Clear coat idea is pretty good.

Where did you get the paint from? Also do you have any pics of how it came out?
