I hit the Mutha Load!
Torquemonkey - THANKS for the tip, I used Mothers clay it is amazing, awesome, I'm astounded, my boy looks like he just got a paint job, and feels like i could slide from one end to the other on him. The clay with even hooked up the head lights about two shades less-cloudy!!!! I love it!!! thank you so much.
When I read that you will hear the crud come off I thought to myself, yeah right, not on my boy!, but you can feel it and hear it. The elbow grease was nothing compared to the results. I ran out of time and couldn't wax him, but tomorrow I am gonna put a coat on him, I can't wait! I tried to take pics, but no justice. (Torquemonkey suggested Maguires, but I could ony find Mothers)
Thanks Mespock, I did the leather seat thing too, got one of those friggin high priced kits (MagicMender 40-50?), the repair stuff is hittin, I am still tryng to work with the color, but that may be my veg. Overall I am very pleased, I'm sure a lesser $ brand would not have done half well. Pics in garage. The color is already starting to look more of a better match, maybe a little time. The repairs to the leather, far better than I expected, deff. worth it. The stuff like gets in the cracks and becomes the seat, sweet, one crease I wish I would have sanded down a bit, but was afraid I would cause more to loosen. The directions were more for one or two repair sites, mine was quite extensive on the front and left side cushions. Pics have it a bit brighter than it is.
If you've had one rip, you'd wish you spent the $ (I had one rip on my other MarkVIII).
A+++++ on both products
Good luck guys
