My family purchased what is known as a “mini Moto” category of motorcycling, which are the little bikes Honda makes such as the GROM, NAVI and MONKEY. Probably more commonly colloquially known as “pit bikes“. The new navI that we have is completely made of plastic that I believe some type of clear coat, but not sure that the total finish may be integrated into the poly plastic it’s made of. it’s more like a plastic clad Ryobi hedge trimmer, it has a gloss finish but I believe it’s part of the construction. What’s the opinion of the forum in protecting this, right now I just put some black fire crystal seal on it and it shows pretty good gloss, any ideas? some pics here:

While something like Griot’s Ceramic 3-in-1 would be decent, for real protection the first thing that comes to mind is CarPro DLux, which is used on trim, wheels, headlights, etc and provides very good protection. And 30 mL of DLux is reasonable and should easily handle the bike or bikes with multiple coats.
