Grubby door cards - best way of cleaning?

Hi

My door cards are very grubby along the top where they need the side windows (or where your elbow rests?) .

The plasticy material is the mottled finish type ? I can't so far find any cleaning material to get the grime out!

Any suggestions? CURRENT : FFRR 2012 4.4 TDV8

I have the same problems. I am sure someone suggested a good option. I think it can be found on my FFRR thread in my range rover area of forum. FFRR TD6 HSE

Tried wipes but they don't seem to clean out the grime in the pitted areas CURRENT : FFRR 2012 4.4 TDV8

Autoglym Interior Shampoo and a deep pile Microfibre cloth.

Spray it on, leave it 2 or 3 minutes and rub with MF till dry & clean. If it's really bad, re-apply and leave longer.

I'm thinking it's a job for a brush of some sort and some major elbow grease!!! Just need the right product with it. FFRR TD6 HSE

I use really really dilute G101 (about 30:1) spray on, 'stir' in with a brush like a nail brush and then wipe with a micro fibre cloth.

I usually protect with a coat of 303 aerospace protectant.

Stops the grubbiness sticking so easily after a shoot when you're caked in mud and what not- or when you've been working on the car and forgotten to wash your greasy hands!

Meguiars APC dilted at 4:1 used with a SOFT nail brush. Dry with a deep pile microfibre cloth which is rinsed regularly in clean hot water. Protect after with 303 aerospace. Works like a champ.

was just about to post something similar Laughing

i would tend to use the APC at 10:1

except i use Poorboys Natural Look for protection - and an old toothbrush is good for inaccessible areas
