I hate that streaking crap... I use either Ultimate Quick Detailer or Eagle One Wax As U Dry on all my plastic and soft bed cover and it keeps it looking brand new and zero streaking when it rains. The Wax As U Dry actually must have some good cleaners in it because it will pull dirt out and get my microfiber dirty when I do the bed cover right after a pressure wash and a soap scrub but the Ultimate Detailer beads water much better... both look about the same on the plastic and cover.

Actually I take that back about not bringing back faded parts... When I got my truck the original owner didn't take care of it to the level I would to keep it mint and the front plastic grilles where starting to turn light grey from dark grey and after a couple washes and passes with Wax As u Dry they turned back to the nice dark grey. I think Wax As U Dry just has heavy cleaners in it because even after a 3700psi pressure wash down and soap scrubbing it will still pull dirt, grime, (or oxidation maybe?) out of the plastic pieces/soft bed cover (like a clay bar will pull crap out that normal washing doesn't - Wax As U Dry is liquid clay for plastic, lol.)

I have a soft tonneau cover on my '06 H/Davidson
truck and the paperwork that came with it said to not treat it with anything, since its already treated at the factory. When I have put something on it, like 303, etc., it makes it look good, but it attracts dust, dirt, faster, and as everyone else has said, when it rains, it runs off and leaves streaks down your paint. The texture of it makes it harder to clean - you need a brush or something strong to get dirt out of all those places.. Here in the tree-falling-crap-24x7-world of Washington, I dont know yet what to use to keep it clean short of finding a place in the garage.. Good luck. DanF
