Tired of that yellow spot over your tailpipe?
Can't wash the car because of water restrictions?
No problem. Wet a paper towel with alcohol (I used ethanol but isopropyl will do) and it disappears like magic, no muss, no fuss. |
I use a mild rubbing compound.....works well too
|
Zymol cleaner wax ftw

:rlaugh: Seriously though, a little bit of http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...formula-88.jpg worked for me, though it ate all of the wax off of the area I was cleaning. |

Try Rotaflow (or Rotaflo).

"either one ruins your paint!"
Mr. Planet, I'm not speculating, this thread is based on actual experience. I have a white 84 GSL with a pristine original paint job that I take very good care of, thank you very much: http://memimage.cardomain.net/member...57_90_full.jpg Here in Georgia we are in the middle of a 100 year drought and if we are going to be responsible citizens we can't wash our cars. My white car isn't that dirty, but it does build up that yellow spot every few weeks and then I usually spend quite a bit of time scrubbing it off with detergent and water. This time, not wanting to use the water, I tried something else and it worked way better than anything I'd used before: Alcohol. Now you folks can go out and spend good money on a jug of Formula 88, Zymol, or Rotaflow, I'm sure the manufacturer's will be happy. But ya'll probably already have a $1.98 bottle of rubbing alcohol in your medicine chest - try it, it works like magic, the yellow melts away, no muss, no fuss. Ray |
hmm, thanks ray..I'll have to check that out..the yellow spot does bother me on my original formula white paint too..
|
just tried it and works great. :)
|
Damn, that's clean. Thanks for the input, Ray, I have a white GSL-SE with a hideous yellow spot over the exhaust. What did you use for wiping? Paper towel, scour pad (those green dish scrubbing pads, not SOS pads) or terry cloth towel?
|
Diapers 85, diapers.
|
My car doesn't have a yellow stain above the tailpipe. Oh wait yes it does,and I think it has spread.
|
what are you guys talking about?
|
you'll see it on most cars with exhaust work done...the black on the sti's and its yellow on my white gsl.. the exhaust is dirty, it turns your bumper a different color whenthe gases come out the muffler
