Polishing

[Paul Landry]

I have used polishing compound on my GPz BUT..  Make sure it is safe for
clear coat / gel coat.  Will be boldly stated on the can if it is. 

I use this more on the areas like the tank that get rubbed by my knees.  Has
worked fine on both the metal and plastic painted parts. 

Lately I have been using the new generation of polishes, like Turtle Wax,
liquid wipe on / wipe off.  No fuss, no muss, done in no time and it looks
great and lasts a seasons worth of riding & washing!.

Does anyone use polish on their plastics and/or tank? I know the manual says
to only use wax, which is non abrasive, but it seems to me that wax won't
remove the years worth of gunk that builds up on the bike's surfaces. I
think a mild polish would really make my bike look good, but I thought I'd
pose the question here before trying.

thanks,
