Clear on ATV Plastic

I have been trying to buff out my black ATV plastic. It had a bunch of light scuff marks all over it when I got it (you can't even feel most of them with your finger nail). I tried using 3M Micro Finishing Compound, but it just makes the plastic hazy.

Unless someone has a better idea, I am thinking of spraying some universal clear on this thing. It is a Suzuki King Quad 700, so most of the plastic is pretty rigid and doesn't flex like the plastic on a sport quad. Would the Universal Clear hold up in this type of appliaction? I'm assuming that I would need to use some 600-4 adhesion promoter.
 
One thing I found to work great on ATV plastic is a heat gun! Heat it with care and you'll see scratches disappear as well as gloss return. Experiment in a hidden area to get the hang of it and even then, be careful on larger fenders and such as they can droop.
