Default Clean Nut over Door Panels

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The interior of the doors sometimes looks uneven and bubbly when the door is open and the sun is shining just right on it..I don't think there is anything that will make it look 110%
I have ocd in a minor way. I used to sit in my last car for sometimes hours with Armor All wipes and work it like Joan Collins on a slow day. I had an 01 Boxster and I rubbed the finish off of those door panels..trying to get them perfect. My wife was soooo pissed. I had to replace the Porsche steering wheel because I rubbed the gray leather finish right off of it. It turned brown and then looked like tan suede once all that Armor All dried.
I was hospitalized in '88 because I blew out an elbow ligament from scrubbing. It turned out that I had to have Tommy John surgery to repair my arm. When I was rehabbing, I did almost go crazy because I couldn't clean my cars and my wife was making them so dirty..she and the kids are pigs. I started gluing macaroni on paper plates and on the headboard of our bed. We were separated for about 4 months while I went to treatment for OCD.
Anyhoo...to make a real long story just long, I now have to exercise real discipline so I don't ruin my 350z and its interior(door panels)

Lol! Talk about unrelated wandering thoughts.... Have fun glueing that macaroni to your headboard. I'm sure it's a blast. Lol~ :-)

You'll know I'm really crazy when I start gluing macaroni on the hood and dash of my Z....well at least then it will really be customized and unloke all others! As long as I stay on my meds.

Thanks StudyBuddy for that link to Autogeek..my wife will be upset because I'm not supposed to be looking at cleaning sites so I don't relapse into a full fledged cleaning frenzy. Is that Aerospace 303 good stuff? Does it leave the dash shiny like Armor All? I have heard good stuff about Aero 303. I used to mainline my interior and trunk of my old Porsche with gallons of Armor All and that Son of a Gun solvent that was out on the market by STP. I think I used so much that it got into my fuel line, gas tank and engine and my old 911 was shot. I took a break from sport cars for awhile and now I really love my Z! I'm starting to get a little OCD about it though and it is concerning my wife and kids. Cleaning just makes me get silly! I get Crazy and Silly!!!!!!

I also LOVE Macaroni!!!!!!!!!
