    How To Clean This Type Of Fabric?

    This fabric drives me crazy. It's not cloth as I am sure you can tell in the pic. I get seats like this all the time. I'll use this seat as an example. I sprayed Meg's d101 and let dwell for a few minutes. I then took my steam cleaner (75 psi) with the triangle brush wrapped in a microfiber...

    Detailing a 1985 Cutlass

    I have a customer who owns a 1985 Cutlass. He might have read somewhere that it is not safe to claybar the exterior. Something about it not having a clearcoat? I am in the dark on this also. I'd appreciate it if anyone could let me know if claying this vehicle is a good idea. Thanks.
