I can't live without the clay ever since I found it. Autogeek has a write up on it - was the first step in deep cleaning all hard surfaces (paint, glass, chrome) before the paint restoration on the gold Lincoln. The Secret to Removing Oxidation and Restoring a Show Car Finish to Antique Single...

x2 on the Evercoat "rage". It sands really nice. Rough up the metal with like 40 grit to get a good grip on the filler. Epoxies like mechanical bonds. Besides the usual body tools, get yourself a cheese grater file to take the top off and rough contour, as soon as it hardens enough. This makes...

It won't fix the cracks, but it might make them less noticeable by cleaning the dirt out of them.

Yes, I finally got some of that Starbright and it works great on white vinyl. Extremely deep cleaning for vinyl with a grain in it. I used a toothbrush to get into the grain recesses then wiped clean with a terry towel. I believe this product has some type of mild abrasive in it like Bon Ami or...

I might have to give that a try too. I have a white vinyl top and white vinyl interior, and it's all been a bear to keep clean. The interior is slightly yellowed and permanently dirty in some areas after 40 years of use. I have been using blue magic leather & vinyl cleaner, and now Griot's...
