Re: Grizz's Redneck Express 1966 Chevy Short Fleetside RESTO-GO!
RIGHT
NEXT SMALL JOB, WITH A BIT OF RISK, THAT BUGGED ME FROM THE DAY I COLLECTED THE VAN, WAS THE DOORS. Sorry, caps lock. After all the years the van has been on the road, the fabric used is actually incredibly well preserved. But it is grubby, more so to the naked eye, than the camera lens. So I decided to use some fabric and carpet cleaner, along with a nail scrubbing brush, at the risk of messing it all up. Before. Dirty, dull. ![]() After. ![]() Graphics, faded and dusty. ![]() After, certainly much better. ![]() Another job, one I usually do the day I wash a new car, is to clean the interior surfaces, knobs, stalks, controls and all grooves with an ammonia based cleaner like Jif/Cif/Handy Andy whatever, and then using some form of plastic or leather or even wax based wood polish. This time it was Auto Glym, because I have bottle I bought previously. Result is a distinct improvement. ![]() VIDEO https://youtu.be/qxjT2TBaXq0 That is where we are up to today. A cleaner van.
