If you get door panels that are real sleazy, spray them down with easy-off oven cleaner and brush it in real good. Rinse it thoroughly and let it dry in the sun. It restores the color of the fabric (removes the gray undertones of age) then spray the fabric areas with Scotch Guard and you're ready to go to the beach. The only reason I say use Easy-off is that my used seats were heavily soiled with human sweat and all of the body olis that go with it. The 409 and other cleaners just didn't get that kind of soil off. |
