Title: finger print dust
Post by: [han] on 06 June 2005, 16:04

Anyone got any tips on removing finger print dust from the rubber around the windows??

Someone suggested to my dad that i use pledge polish - none of the cheap c**p, cos it'll show through silver again once it dries!!

Damn chav vandals wreckin' the car, and making my golf into a write off (before i bought it!)

thanx xxx

On the dust thing - try methylated spirits. Obtainable easily from DIY stores.
