Oxydized seat back/door panel semi fix
For years I've just scraped the dead plastic from these items, and then painted them, shrugged my shoulders and said that's as good as I can get em. Last nite I was playing in the garage, and had half a can of wrinkle finish paint left over from doing my air cleaner, and figured why not. I had a seat back with lots of dead plastic, gouges, smears, etc, so I sanded it with 80 grit, then 100, cleaned it with lacquer thinner, then shot a light coat of wrinkle finish paint. Put it near the heat, and then checked it out this morning.... Wow.... Not a true grain, but it fakes it pretty well, and it hides most of the defects I could never get out of the good surface beneath the dead plastic. Yea, I'm gonna do the other back tonite, no more dreaming of finding a really good set.
