Figured out why the back door now scrapes the box when opened. Crack #3.

Yup. Plated 2 cracks on the other side before I took her off the road, but looking at this one now I think it may have been there all along, just hidden by undercoat.

I spent ten minutes with a Magic Eraser and rejuvenated the steering wheel.



EDIT: It works well on panels, too. This is part of the door panel in my Mustang. I had no idea it was this cruddy! (Years of protectant buildup, I assume.)

Yeah, I keep a box of them on hand. They're great taking off the grime. They work really well getting love bugs off too.

Magic Eraser's also take off paint. If your vehicle has painted interior parts, be careful to not get too aggressive.

Yep, a light touch is required.

My Mustang could probably use some magic eraser action too.... but that'll have to wait until this motor project is done. I've got feelings that it's going to get dirty.

I am probably putting it in a show on Saturday though, so who knows, LOL.
