Author Message   Doogiehiser Posted on Friday, December 30, 2011 - 01:17 am:        anyone have any idea on how to get the gloss out of the plastic body panels to get the flat look? or do i have to get all new panels that are already flat?   Sportster_mann Posted on Friday, December 30, 2011 - 06:46 am:        Fine wet and dry paper as we Brits call it ? I've used it to clean up scratches prior to buffing up and it tends to leave a matt finish.   Tbolt98 Posted on Friday, December 30, 2011 - 08:07 am:        Might be tough to get a uniform finish... i would scuff it up as mentioned and hit it with a rattle can of satin or matte black.   Nillaice Posted on Friday, December 30, 2011 - 11:53 am:        fine steel wool. you will have to maintian the look on pieces that you regulary touch while riding   Mbest Posted on Friday, December 30, 2011 - 01:15 pm:        The "grey super-fine ScotchBright works great for that   Luisemilio25r Posted on Friday, December 30, 2011 - 05:34 pm:        It's easier/cheaper in the long run if you wrap it with vinyl. Did it to my 1125r and I'm very happy with the results.
