Ok, over the past couple of years, the non-painted luggage on my Buell has begun to look not so hot.  What do you guys use to revive the look of your black, non-painted luggage?  Its beginning to look more gray than anything!

I've repainted a couple Givi cases using this with good results.

i've heard the Mother's Black is good stuff. Popular over at COG with the old Connies' sidecases and the dashboards.

I went to Wally World a couple of months ago to pick up oil and while there, I was also looking for some Back to Black for the same reason.  I have used it in the past and it works well.  However, they were out of it.  I picked up some Turtle Wax Trim Restorer instead, figuring I would give it a try.

It works GREAT!   I had some Givi side cases and mirror stalks that were really looking bad.  This stuff took care of those problems immediately and they are holding up very well over this hot and dry summer.  I highly reccomend it.

You can also try Turtlewax Ice. It won't last that long but looks good.
