Hey all, I am busting my rear trying to get my dads 66 Chevy II SS detailed by this weekend and I was wondering what was the best way to clean and protect the vinyl top. Would a 50/50 APC spray be too harsh for the vinyl? I plan on putting the VRT on it when I get it clean.
This is an original 52k mile L79 (350hp 327cid) car so I can't risk any damage to it, it is very rare.
I will post up pics when I am done. I have put in 14hrs in it and all I have done was scratch/swirl removal and one coat of MSW. This lacquer is a pita to work on. The most aggressive items I have is the orange pad and 3M Perfect It polish so it took 3-4 applications to get 90% of the scratches out. Today I plan on putting 2 coats of APW on it and polishing the glass which is also badly swirled and dirty.
