  • body care

    Hi
    since I my Argo,I would like to know if there are ways to do good to their body.
    Can there care products,like Armor all or something,be applied and do they have a positive effect?

    while putting my machine back together,i accidently stumbled apon a product that puts life back into sun bleached bodies.my body band had no stretch left in it so i lubed it up with fluid film to make it slide over easier.while wiping the access fluid film up i noticed that my plastic looked fantastic,so i did the whole machine.so if your body is sun bleached and faded give fluid film a try,you will be amazed.

      I have this polish called "One Touch" (By North Woods/Superior) that we used to use at work. It works great (Even on fiberglass!) and is a spray-on cleaner/polish all in one. Really removes oxidation and looks good. You can buy it direct from (Superior) at this site North Woods Chemical - Environmentally Friendly Cleaning Chemicals for 11 bucks a can. I say it's worth it.
      It's all just nuts and bolts.

        Mine likes a moisterizer rub with cucumber slices on its headlights. Yes it has a positive effect. It dances around my garage on cloud 9.

          I use the Armor all with UV protection in it. It seems to me UV from the sun is what oxidises to plastic the most

            After that furniture polish works great. I use cheap no name brands. 1/3 the price of armour all

              Not for the environmentalists, but on my hustler body, I use motor oil. It brought back the color and keeps it from drying out, also keeps it slick. Note: do not use it on plastic seats or control surfaces. Also if you use your aatv in water, I wouldn't put it on the lower tub, just to keep oil out of the lakes, and streams.
              I don't want to go fast, I just want to go anywhere.

                  I was originally gonna mention diesel fuel, but held back with your respect for the environment. It does work good though.

                    If you guys wanna bring back the shine to your bodies, nothing beats a carefully applied heat gun. It reactivates the oils in the Hdpe and brings them to the surface. Then if you want to maintain with Armor-all that's kewl....

                      Use the same polish and it does great on the black Avenger.
                      Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways , cigar in one hand, whiskey in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO, what a ride!!!"

                        Thanks a lot for those many answers and suggestions of yours!
                        This seems to be a very active place and a good source for information.Thankfully,I have no problem with a bleached out body (as I said,it is in very good condition for it´s age),but I keep the tips for that case definitely in mind.
                        I will try out those care products as soon as it warms up a bit (-30°C is just too cold...).
