Vinyl CLeaners

[Dan Clermont]

I have been using Mequiars #40 Vinyl Cleaner for the past year and have beenn quite happy with it. My spray bottle just ran out and I was wondering if their are any other great Mother's Meguiars , Auto Glyn products out there. I was looking at the Vinylex Protectant product as I was going to order some Lexol Conditioner from www.CarCaresmart.com anyhow





Thanks

Top of the Line makes a great vinyl cleaner. It can be diluted to any desired strength. I highly recommend it. They also sell Lexol products if you are interested in the Lexol Conditioner. Try comparing their prices. The website is topoftheline.com



But, if you liked Meq #40, it can be found locally at lots of places and you could avoid shipping hassles.

For cleaning vinyl, I just put a little Woolite in a bucket with some water (although probably any diluted APC would work well). Anything stubborn, like say a scuff mark gets a shot of Simple Green APC or a rub with a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser.



I've heard good things about Vinylex, but it tends to be a bit shiney, which won't matter in most places except maybe the dash where you don't want a lot of reflection back to the windshield.



Somewhere either here or on Edmunds I learned about 303 Aerospace Protectant. I've used it on the vinyl and plastic for several vehicles now and it has me sold. It's a subtle sheen that makes the vinyl look brand new, rather than dressed.
