Re: cleaning jeep interior
Armorall is the antichrist. I'm convinced it's produced by the same folks
who make car interiors, so they can sell more new cars and new car
interiors.

Re: cleaning jeep interior
oh god yeah.. stay away from this crap. I used it religeously on my
bfgoodrich 245 tires on my cobra(which I sold to buy my Rubi ; ).. )
eventually i noticed the sidewalls were turning almost brown.. and the tread
was actually pulling away from the side wall. almost like a dry rot. these
tires only had 1000 miles on them !!
armour all = crap

Re: cleaning jeep interior
First, Armor-all is heroin for plastic. Once you begin using that crap, you
have to keep using it or the stuff you used it on will turn white.
Second, Real Jeeps are never clean, especially on the inside.
