This query is for Australian members... My 2007 Deauville is still in very good condition however the faded plastics detract from its overall appearance. Has anyone here found any satisfactory solution to this problem?
Any chance of a vidio demonstrating this procedure?Electric heat gun / paint stripper gun works well too.
Use with caution

I have noticed that also and if the same material was use on all the black pieces there would be no fading. The fading was especially bad on the rear facing part of the bike, my bike spent a lot of time parked by a open south facing garage door.Wish they made more of the bits out of the stuff at the base of the bags. That part stayed black on my bike. Anyone familiar with the chemistry here?

Hiya, although I'm not in Australia, I thought I'd reply as I have tried several products and methods mentioned above. If your plastic has really faded grey with the sun, other than spraying with paint, cream cleaners will not return the colour. In the end I used a Black plastic dye which returned the parts to near factory condition. The product I used was from Wurth. Hope this helpsThis query is for Australian members...
