Any other suggestions as to it's use. > Tom > '68 FB (Thumper) > '70 Bug (recently purchased) Tom, The first thing I did was clean the pad (it had been in a junked car out in a field). Then I just rubbed it in on with my fingers, making sure to get in all the nooks and crannys. I barely used any and was gentle on the speaker grill, yet it turned out the same. I let it sit for 2-3 days, though I don't know if this matters. I wiped off the excess with paper towels, and then washed with a soft soapy sponge. In the speaker grill holes (early dash) I had to use a nail brush to get out the excess goo. When finished it has a "wet" look, but it's dry and no slime. I've not tried this with anything else yet, but I don't see why it wouldn't work with all vinyl and rubber. P.S. I did this with the pad out of the car, but you have to be gentle as it not supported properly. Peter Parker '66 Square; Phillip Portland, OR
