Maybe Clyde can chime in about the Armor All multipurpose cleaner stuff. I think it's pretty much god's gift to grease removal. Pretty sure it worked for him too. I don't want to be responsible for any more disappointment though. |

I would still use them again. They were flexible and the body work itself looks good. |

edit: oh, and grab a stiff bristle brush of some sort to scrub the fabric. |

I like the Griot's Interior Cleaner. It's good and available at Advance.

It helped about 80% for me. It wasn't a wonder product, but that may have been my fear of Armor All and inadequate bushing. OTOH, a couple weeks later, there was no sign of brake dust in the very light colored upholstery. No complaints, for sure.

So... I was driving the CR-V last night and moved the sun visor to the side to block the sun, and it fell in my lap. After fixing all of the weatherstripping/panel overlaps myself, I suppose I'm headed back to the body shop. My wife now understands why I was so annoyed to have the car at a body shop with the headliner off.
It looks like they put both of the visors back without clips or the screws needed to keep it in place. |
