Dealing with Scuff Marks of Textured Surfaces of Your Interior

Junkman2008 · 01-31-2016, 07:30 AM

In this video, I show what I use to deal with scuff marks on the textured interior pieces of my Corvette. The textured surfaces are coated with some type of lamination and a lot of cleaners and devices that people use to scrub those panels with can remove that coating. The coating assist in making the cleaning of those textured surfaces easier. The way the magic erasers work is that they remove scuff marks with no soap whatsoever. However, that makes them somewhat abrasive. By adding plain soap, you cut the harshness of the cut and make it more tolerable. This somewhat prolongs the cleaning but drastically cuts down on the possibility of removing that lamination on these panels. Whatever you do, do NOT use any harsh household cleaners with these erasers as the can eat right through them.

For those wanting the technical name of this stuff, it's called Melamine foam and has a long history as a soundproofing material for studios, sound stages, auditoriums, and the like.

Enjoy!

Junkman,

Always a pleasure watching your videos. We actually partnered with the rag company and it has made things much easier here..... Jeff is a great guy and has been awesome to work with.

PS: Just purchased the DJI Phantom 3 Advanced.... :P

Thanks for checking it out Ryan.

So what in the world made you wanna get into RC flying? You think detailing is an expensive hobby, wait until you get hooked into RC stuff!

Something I been wanting for a long time. Been doing a lot of research and the Phantom 3 advanced is the best bang for buck IMO. I will be using it for video production for the company. Want to start putting out videos... especially the ceramic coatings.

Well I suggest you get a simulator first. I couldn't even hover a 3D chopper until I bought a sim and got good with it.

The DJI Phantom is actually very easy to operate and comes with a ton of features.
I like the 4K only because it has a 3 Mile range but going with the advanced for my first buy.
