Bend marks in fenders

[Tecate250]

I have original fenders off a 84-85 tecate and there mint except the back one has a lot of bend marks in it.
Anyone know how to get rid of them if there is even a way???

There is no way to get rid of them because the marks extend into the sub surface of the plastic. You should just go ahead and buy some new fenders. You're in luck because Maier makes shiny plastic now, which looks a lot better than the crap they used to make.

HEAT GUN!!!! slowly heat the area, and the marks disapear slowly, dont hold it to close though, as it will melt the plastic, about 3-4 inches away is about right.

A propane torch may also work. Just fan it quickly across the surface. Be careful though, it's hard to go back once you've gone too far!

Im going to try that.
I also have the old maier fenders and they are junk. My 85 has 3 different colors on it.

Thanks alot.
