Cleaning interior

The Deuce · 12-15-2002, 09:12 PM

How does one go about getting the textured plastic on the door panels and center console clean? I'm thinking I need some simple green and a toothbrush, but that would take a long time. Any help is appreciated.

I thought yours was all black. The gray is a PITA.

actually i drove a stang with blue/white interior last year...the armor all worked wonders on it too....

even the black that i drive now it just cleans it right up...even if you have a spot on the console, like a cupholder, thats been housing change for a year or something...it comes right off...armor is a wonderful thing....dont ever let it touch leather tho!...or glass/plastic for that matter...

Yup, must agree I love Armorall. It's some great stuff!
But becareful where you use it, that **** makes everything slipery. My dad sprayed it on the floor by accident in my house. I was still half asleep and stepped on it and landed on my ***, and he did the same thing the next day.

The stuff works wonders!

Thanks guys. I'll use it for cleaner and then use the polish I have over it.

FYI, Armour All is alcohol based (I believe) and causes the stuff to dry out over time doing more harm than good. I've found Black Magic is Silicone based and creates a seal keeping the moisture in, it last longer too.

Sam, just noticed your selling the pace car. WTF?

I don't believe it has alcohol in it... but I could be mistaken. I'll have to check into that.

And yeh it's up for Sale.. it's going in the Autotrader tommorow. Insurance is way to high for me ($4200 a year and that doesn't include collision) so I'm going to sell it and try to buy something come spring. Either a Grand National or perferiably another old Mustang. I like buying cars, fixing them up, driving them for abit and selling them. Kinda cool hobby and I can make some good money too.
