Cleaning door cards/dash


Dnk

Recommended Posts

Autofinese Spritz works for me, leaves a nice Matt finish without it been sticky or shiny.

 

There will be loads, but i enjoy using this one the most.

 

Hence why i asked, the shelves are full of the stuff.

 

The door cards on the Range Rover are really dirty and will

need some careful scrubbing with a nail brush or similar

As Ric has said, APC or G101 (which is the autosmart version, and cheaper than Meguiars, but also great) is for cleaning. You dilute this with water, and the ratio of water is far higher so it does last a very long time. The nice thing with these products is they can be used for so many different tasks, such as interior, tyres before applying dressing (there is no point applying a dressing to a greasy dirty tyre), exterior rubbers and plastics, cleaning an engine bay that isn't completely covered in oil and grease, door/boot/fuel shuts etc

 

Spritz is very good for finishing, I also use Poorboys natural look dressing

G101 really can't be beaten for actual cleaning.

 

It can be used for anything, just dilute it right first.

 

For a finish the Spritz is great.

 

The Autosmart G101 ? i have a local guy that comes round with their stuff so might give that

a try, looks well priced too.

I enquired about this not long back - in the end i decided to go with Meguires APC, bilberry wheel cleaner, poor boys natural look dressing (for all those that wonder what it smells like - it smells like coronado cherry from california car scents) i also bought something called stripper scent by chemical guys - have only opened it to see what it smelt like! True to its word :D

Where do you get the Poorboys natural look dressing from ?

 

The front door cards have come up very well after cleaning with the G101
