Subject:      Cleaning the Westy fiberglass top
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Hi everyone. I have a 1980 Westfalia.  The previous
owner scratched the top a lot, so there are lots of
places for mildew to grow on it.  Being a neat-freak,
I don't like the dark, mildewed look of many older
Westfalias I see around.  I want mine always to be
bright.


This top seems messy to clean to me.  You can use
bleach or muriatic acid (stuff to get at mildew), but
then it drips will drip down on the van.  Any
suggestions for harmlessly cleaning the fibreglas top?
 Once it is clean, maybe I should paint the top so I
don't have to bother with it.  Does that work out OK?


Thanks, Phil Hanson
1980 Westfalia.
