Detailing questions...

Post by AlanS »

Quick detailing questions:
1. The Ocean Race 'sticker' that is attached to the driver's door peeled off. The adhesive is still on the door. What can I SAFELY use to remove it? What adhesive do I use to attach the rubbery square name plate?
2. What do I use to get old white wax off of the black bumpers?
3. The auto supply store has 'dozens' of wheel cleaners. Any suggestions of the best to use? I have some nicely adhered brake dust on one of my wheels.

1. can't help, but try lighter fluid
2. try Meguiars all purpose cleaner and a toothbrush, if not successful, IronX
3. Meguiars hot rims if suitable for your wheel material and finish. may take multiple applications to cut throught the deposits. also IronX
