I am cleaning son number one's car with him.
The interior front door handles have what looks like filthy, sticky gunk stuck to them. I used G101 and tar remover and, with a bit of elbow grease, it cleaned off, leaving a dirty mark on the microfibre cloth and a clean, smooth surface underneath.
Then number one son pointed out that maybe the ''sticky gunk'' was actually the top surface layer of plastic on the door handle and I had rubbed it off!
I must admit he may have a point. I mean, the gunk was so sticky and appeared to be adhered to the surface of the handles, I thought it was just years of handling with dirty hands. But now I'm thinking again.
The pictures are below. What do you think?
