    Corvette Help?!

    I started detailing my corvette, after all the AG purchases (Addictive by the way!). Well I used Meg's APC 10:1 on my interior and scrubbed with meg's all interior brush, and wiped with a wet towel. The next day my door panels were a bit cloudy! Did i ruin them with the scrubbing? Do i have to replace them? Can this go away?

    I used the same procedure on the dash, seems fine..

    any help?

    you have to be real carefull when useing all purpose cleaners on your interior. make sure you dilute it right. and also becarfull scrubing your dash .not to hard .take it from me i sprayed the dash in my truck once and scrubed it real hard and all this black stuff was on the rag .so i said wow this dash is really dirty. well no to find out i was taking off the dye in the plastic!!! so be carfull!!

    Yah, pictures would help.
    Did you get it all off well enough? I mean you don't think the stain are leftover product, do you? That could be it.

    That is why I never will use apc to clean the interior or leather. There are so many safer and better things that work.

    To achieve excellence, excellence cannot be rushed. Technique is just as important as the product used.
    While my approach takes more time, the results are far superior.

    Well i don't maybe, i'll try to go over it with a wet towel again, and i'll use a vinyl cleaner i have vinelex from lexol. i'll try to post some pics before and after.

    Plastic ? never a scub brush inside unless absolutly nessary. Well mabe some lexol or 303 or something that will work on plastic, maybe try something that removes wacx from plastic parts. Not sure what AG has but I use Black renew (Wizard) seems to clean off wax and give a luster to plastic panels. Sorry founded it before this forum.
