Waxing Plastic

Can you wax plastic, like on a John Deere Gator, I was wondering if that would look decent, or if it would work at all, I have the Meguairs Gold Class Gel, Turtle Wax Zip Wash, & Black Magic Tire Shine.
Thanks.

Mop-n-glow works great on my 4 wheelers plastic.

Ive used lemon pledge for years now on my atv's. It works very very well and helps with the dust... Dont let any one talk you into using armour all! Dust magnet.
Ive also thought about using my Turtle wax ICE. on my atv to see? It did do a very good job on my plastic trim on my f150...

As long as the plastic is smooth, you will have no problems. I put a coat on my light bar when I wax my truck.

I use Plexus plastic cleaner and polish on the plastic on my ATV...Works great. Tire foam works good too.

Another vote for the wax, I also throw a coat of wax on my ATV's about once a year. Works great.

Plexus is great stuff. I used it on all of my race bikes.

I know Mop n Glow works good but I have read on my atv forums that some claim to fade the plastic over time like ArmourAll will also. Now i used to use ArmourAll on previous bikes and never had a problem. just thought I would mention it. When I don't wax, I use afeter every wash Honda Pro Polish or something like that. Buy it at the local Honda shop in a spray can. And leaves a real nice shine.
