Propertylogic,

-----------Go to the NCRS (National Corvette Restorers Society) website and ask away, as those guys know everything there is to know about Vettes. The older the better, as most of them are really ancient. Even older than me!!!!!!........Bill S

Sorry,back to the Armor All....I had to share this after the interior stories...

My friend is a car cuy as well as a Cop.He likes to Armor All the crap out of the rear of his cruiser.Seats and rubber floor.....Just imagine a pain in the a$$ guest,hand cuffs,and a faster than normal ride with an abrupt stop.Talk about putting someone in their place.....

I've heard all the bad things about Armor All. In fact, the manufacturer of the tonneau conver on our truck specifically mentions Armor All as a product not to be used. On the other hand Dennis has been using the stuff for 30 years and his car is still good. I had a vinyl top car and the top looked much better than the car and it was always treated with Armor All. Curious.

Bill Porterfield used Armor All on the tires on the Berger ZL1 for years. The outside where he used it had no cracks but the inside where none was used they were dried and cracked.

Tires are the only thing* I've ever used Armor All on. Radial T/A's shine up especially well with AA. My Coker redlines don't respond to AA so I use Westley's Bleche-White on those. (Thanks to Supercarkid for that tip.) Oh, and spray it on a rag away from the car and then wipe the AA'd rag over the tire. A painter told me years ago to keep Armor All away from the car's paint.

*Okay, I admit it. I used Armor All on my first '67 Camaro's interior once when I was a high school kid, c1979. The AA caused me to slide all over those (Deluxe) seats and then on a hot day the Armor All would evaporate from the seats and onto the inside of the windows. Tires only, fellas.

Didn't mind the ARMOR ALL on the car seats back then, kinda made for a few laughs with the girl you were with,---but I don't use it on the seats any longer, my wife won't go parkin and neckin anymore and "now" at my age "if" I parked by myself and just slid from left to right in the front seat eventually I would either dislocate something or be arrested .........But in all fairness I did use it on my '69 Chevelle dash top religiously and still have the original dash just as is like new--- no problems--...
