cleaning/restoring vinyl seats
Hi all, just got my hands on a '65 notch with what looks to be original interior.
It's in pretty good condition with no real tears or rips. However the vinyl is pretty dirty.
I was wondering if anyone had any tips/suggestions of ways I can clean up and restore the red and white vinyl interior? Should I just stick with
armour all, or is there something better out there?
Cheers

At the dealership we used to use Kitten vinyl cleaner,mixed in the right % it worked well,then wash with clean water & dry. Almost any of the
vinyl cleaners on the market will work with a little elbow grease.

Thanks mate.
Yeah, just thought I'd put up a post just in case there was some special technique or magic product out there that I don't know about.
Cheers

Nope elbow grease it is although some products are better than others.That is why we used the Kitten.

Hi,
Is this product that you used Kitten Interior Cleaner, the foaming kind, or a different product?
Thanks,

I've got a 70 model with original cream trim and I have used with good results water based degreaser (very small amount) then scrub with a nail
brush, wipe off with a damp cloth and smuther with macquiurs trim detailer let it soak for as long as possible the wipe of excess. Comes up a treat .
