Now that they are coated the dirt can't penetrate and can be easily cleaned.
Yeah....I've been wanting to paint mine too. What kind of plastic primer did you use...???

That's what I use as well. Been using it for years on everything from daily drivers to show cars. Imo, nothing is better on plastics.

I've used Meguiar's Ultimate Protectant for the past several months and the only negative thing I've experienced is a little run off the following morning if I used a little too much. I've recently switched to Turtle Wax Ice and so far I'm a huge fan. I have a black jeep and use Ice on everything...the body, bumpers, fenders, rock rails, and door handles. Thus far no problems at all. Nothing turns white and the fenders look fantastic. Also have noticed the bumpers and fenders seem to stay cleaner and darker much longer between washings. Just remember, a little ICE goes a long way. I literally use no more than an ounce for my entire 4 door Wrangler.
