Thumbs up

Thanks guys.

Hey PKRWUD,
I tried that advice you gave me on wiping down the roll cage with Old English. I bought a bottle of that stuff and wet the rag down and wiped the whole cage with generous amounts of OE (of course I checked an inconspicuous spot first to make sure it wouldn't harm the paint). Less than an hour after i did it, about half the strong spray paint smell was gone. About a day later, I could notice NO spray paint smell at all. To tell the truth though, the lemon smell from the OE didn't hang around either, but that's okay. The OE did something to the finish of the paint, it made it shinier and more scratch resistant (maybe this is all in my head). But for sure it totally deleted the raw smell in the car. THANKS A BUNCH. Your simple advice made a big difference, now my interior doesn't stink.
