|
|
The Limited Edition Plate on my dash looks like it has something growing on it. I want to clean it but I don't want to damage the plate. Have any of you seen anything like this before? If so what have you done to clean it and did it work?

I would start with a soft bristle toothbrush and just some hand soap.
Next move up to toothpaste.

Maybe soak in a baking soda solution?
Come on! One of us has to remember Freshman Chem. What kills that kind of mildew? Looks like what you'd see on copper. |

That looks like metal oxidation and there's no really cleaning that. It;\'s not just on the surface. |

I like the idea of ordering a new one. Can I get a new one with the correct number on it? _________________ 1989 ASC McLaren Triple BLUE #128 |
