I know there was a thread some time back on this, but can't find it.....almost 80 hours on my little tractor, and I think it needs to be waxed...any ideas? turtle wax ok for the plastic?

I use lemon pledge. Learned it from deere dealer preping tractors for show.

Canauba is a wax that is on the leaf a certain kind of palm tree. It is the best wax you can use on anything.

You guys are joking, right? Wax your tractor?

When I'm waxing philosophical, I wax my tractor too. I haven't waxed my tractor yet, which only says how philosophical I am.

I did wax mine. Once when it was brand spankin' new. I used canauba wax, did it real good. Two years later, I don't do anything for the poor thing. But I still get folks asking if it's brand new. That wax makes the dirt just fall off.'

Maybe I'll wax it again...

I agree with you. I saved for years to get my tractor. I would and Will take Extra Good Care of my Investment.

I use a wax made by Rain - X and it does very well on plastics and metal. It is a creamy paste and easy to apply. It has ingredients that help protect it from harmful sunrays as well. Makes a slick finish which help from briars and limbs from scratching the surface as well.
