Objection! Hyperbole. Poster clearly hasn't used all other methods.


and therefore cannot use the phrase "works better than anything" with any certainty. Move to strike.

Actually vinegar and baking soda does work pretty well, but no better than toothpaste, steel wool and acetone, or any of the other countless methods out there.

The correct (and painful) way to do it is to tape up the paint, wet sand with 1500 and 2000 sand paper, polish with compound and clear coat paint with 2k rattle can. That will last 2+ years in the direct sun and is distinctively better than the aforementioned. Everything else is 6 mo to a year tops but MUCH easier.

The "good enough" methods take 3-5 minutes, the correct way takes half an hour. I suppose it depends on your interest and OCD levels.

Cap, I'm just being stupid, meant no offense. I used Kahlua for coffee creamer this morning and I'm hopped up.
