Wow guys, thanks for the tips. I don't know how many hours I've personally
spent scrubbing those rails with a scotch brite and only had minimal
improvement. After reading SolarFry's mail, I just tried a bit on my badly
weathered and stained rub rail, with both acetone and lacquer thinner, and
am amazed how how truly WHITE everything was with minimal rubbing. On my
particular crud, I think acetone worked a little better, but both were way
better than my usual soap/water/elbox grease setup.
Do you think these solvents >clean< the vinyl, or do they >remove< a thin
layer?
