    What do you do when a plastic/vinyl non painted surface is right up next to a painted surface?

    Here`e a link to picture that shows the vinyl (whale tail flare) butted right up to the black paint:

    Questions: <ul class=`bbc`>[*]How do you get wax off of the plastic?[*] What`s the best type of dressing for this type of vinyl?[*]How do you get the vinyl dressing off the paint?[/list]
    Thanks

    Normally what i do after I wash the car is apply 303 or other protectant on the rubber/vinyl parts of the car before I wax. This helps when I accidentally get some wax on one of those parts, because it`s easier to wipe off.

    It`s a classic/muscle car auction that occurs 3 times a year. Once in Scottsdale AZ, once in Florida, once in Las Vegas.

    Finest muscle cars in the world are usually auctioned there. Normally there are about 1800 cars there... ALL are near perfect, high-dollar vehicles!

    I think they are one of the biggest car auctions in the US and when they have a auction you can see at the speed channel.

    There will be another Barrett-Jackson in Orange County in June. I go to the shows and it is definitely a buyers market

    I sub-contract out through my detailing business. Lot of work. Meet some cool people. There is one in West Palm Beach the first week in April.
