TOYOPET Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 i used armourall wipes to get spew off my door cards once. worked a charm.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaMpylobacter Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 I use NEOPOL furniture cleaner. rules mega, doesnt attract dust etc, although it's more of a protectant/polish than a cleaner, as are mos vinyl products..... just use some meths or something to get the scunge off, check it wont fux0r the vinyl first on a small spot. then neopol it hard. chur armourall and shit like that is bad for leather and vinyl etc. contains silicon which hardens them up etc. gay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 buy some stuff from repco that is purpose spray vinyl. Then you can do it any colour you want and will look like new. I used it on my dash and i works mint as. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedyrr Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 Local guy here that does a lot of top notch job for upholstery and vinyl work etc for old cars and hod rods etc, he did the seats in my 16L colt. His advice to me was only use basic stuff like handy andy/bit of warm water/ brush and a lot of elbow grease for cleaning up vinyl. If you use anything with silicon in it you have to keep using it all the time or the vinyl will be shagged in the long run, he said if it's got silicon in it don't touch it.

kyteler Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Depends if it's white or ivory, I would be betting ivory and regardless you'll never be able to make it look fantastic if it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
