Can someone tell me how to clean these rubberized switches. PLEASE

Tried a damp/wet Micro, no luck



Very tough to see in pic, but they are all linty etc, and doesn`t seem to come off

Great job!

There is one of these in the parking lot with a baby seat in the back. Can you say "cognitive dissonance? "

Certainly looks good from here.

Love the sound those cars make, great exhaust note.

Supposed to be the "sexiest" sounding exhaust and the most "stimulating" to women.

Very nice Ron. I hate those buttons. Been using microsuede 4x4 with a damp spray of IUDJ or you could use PB equal. Just nothing too harsh. A little masking tape will clean up the lint you have.

Thanks CJ

What is IUDJ ? APC ?

Wish I thought of masking tape

[Ronkh]

I`m feeling kinda stupid right now

Awesome work Ron and John meant to say "Infinite Use Detail Juice" lol

Why do you think men buy them?

Now with Ferrari FF, those that want a four seating shooting break can have it, plus a v12 tuned with the family in mind. Of course, if you share my opinion you hate the shooting brake design of the FF and would go with its Fiat sister, Maserati of course. My mom was thinking about one (a Quatroportte) and brought it home but after the weekend test drive she found out it wouldn`t be for her. Too finicky and close to the ground (after a decade+ in a BMW X5). Plus 1,500 for an alignment if she hits a curb kind of scared her off. All I said was, "then don`t hit the curb!" Oh well, she ended up getting a new X5 last year... Still waiting for that first Italian sports car...

Looks great. The "linty" buttons are likely a result of the weird rubberized coating that Ferrari and Maserati uses on their interiors. It softens, then becomes gummy, over time. The only solution is to have them refinished.

Thanks.

I guess they don`t need post it notes if they are in the car, cuz dayum they are sticky. Probably hold my phone on them
