I know this is AUTOpia but has anyone detailed a golf cart?

I bought a new truck this year and now a new Club Car Precedent golf cart. I am starting to enjoy detailing my truck and thought this neat, new cart could be detailed too. After adding pin stripes to it the other day I began to wonder what this thing was made of. It sure was not metal like a car and the paint did not seem to be "on top" if you know what I mean. I did a little research and determined Club Car uses some thermoplastic called "Armor Flex". It is a special plastic with the color bonded to it.

I use AIO/SG as my primary tools for my truck but I doubt these would be good things for this plastic. I have sprayed the cart with PBs W&S and also Eagle One quick detailers and they do well. Although I prefer sealants on my truck over wax, I would not be opposed to waxing my cart if that is the only way. Does anyone have any suggestions for what products to use that would best protect and shine a golf cart made of this material? PS-they call it Burgundy but it is more a reddish brown color.

I have a green 2002 easy-go, and I used ssr1 via rotary and wool pad, rmg, and #16 on everything. Just make sure that you keep the rotary moving or you could melt the plastic.

I've taken AIO and #16 to the paint of my dad's golf cart. The plastic got 303 and the tires got meg's hot shine. Looked really good

I'd assume AIO would be just fine with any topper you want.
The bottle says you can use it on ANY non-pourous surface.
Hell , I've used it on windows , mirrors , jewelery , CD's , eyeglasses , stoves , refridgerators , cell phones...yada,yada,yada...you get the point.

I'd just go with a mild polish and seal with OCW.
