I've given up on wax, perma plate etc.
I bought a new 4x4 subcompact tractor, shiny as .... The dealer told me he uses SC1 High Gloss Coating on all his tractors. It's fo metal, plastic and just about anything else. Motorcyclists use it religiously. So I tried it. On the super bad areas I sprayed it on and let it dry. Dull gone shine back. On less dull areas I buffed it while wet. It's been two to three weeks at 7,000' plus and looks as good the day I put it on.
Looks like a pretty neat product. Waxing never restored the original shine and lasted less than 2 weeks. I bought four more cans from Amazon and after I have it washed I am going to complete the job of covering the chalked areas. Have no idea of its persistence.
SC1 High Gloss Coating!
