I heard from a really good source that using "Lemon Pledge" on your engine detailing and interior is way far better than Armorall and other name brand leather cleaners, etc.  It doesn't have to be Lemon scented, just the Pledge product does wonders.  Used it on my leather seats to clean and I got more dirt off using that then anything else.  You can use it on rubber, your dash, etc.

GM glass cleaner is the best for cleaning the hoses and stuff in the engine compartment, too. It gets them clean, without leaving the stuff all shiny and slippery. (Judges don't like that! It gets on their hands, and then they rub it on their pants...BOO-HOO! )


Thanx for the tip there, Micki. I'll have to try that someday.

It works good on convertible tops too.

Wow, I didn't think a wax substance would be good in the engine compartment but if Joel's willing to try it, it must be okay   Guess I'll give it a try this spring.

I've used Pledge since the 60's on my vinyl interior, the stuff is great and smells pretty good.

Haven't used Pledge in the garage in years but back in the 70s I used it on ALL the black enameled surfaces on my 70 Nova. Undercarriage, wheel wells, engine compartment. Everytime I smell that stuff it brings back memories!  Mike

Boy, to have a clean engine compartment and have it smell good too, I love lemony sent.. I wonder if they make it Mango?

I use Lemon Pledge as a deodorant.  Joel and Micki said I smelled lemony when we went out to dinner.  I also use it on my dog.  LOL..  just kidding, or maybe not...  

No, Kevin...that's NOT what I smelled!

I've never heard of the Pledge thing...I wonder about the long-term effects on the plastics/vinyl stuff? I think I will try it on the chassis stuff, tho. I need to start cleaning the '74 for the Auto-Rama coming up soon. It ain't been cleaned since PF!!!

I propose that our very own Micki perform a personal demonstration of this amazing detailing technique on each member's car at Carson City.

That way, everyone can be sure that they properly understand the process before attempting it themselves later, at home.

I used Pledge in the 60,s and 70,s, before the fancy stuff came out!

I've used Pledge on Plexiglass aircraft windshields, and Motorcycle windscreens for years.  It works great at reducing the effect of scratches and improving the visibility, and the bugs wash off easer.  I use it on the front bumpers and headlight covers of my wifes Acura for the same reason.  Great stuff!

Ditto on aircraft windshields and side windows. I have used it on the helicopter bubbles for years. It really makes a difference when sparying them bugs off. Of course if it is Airpledge it's $150.00 A CAN.
