I just purchased a 68 convertible and have my work cut out for me. LOL . The air cleaner is an original with good silk screening underneath . Only thing is its very dirty. Gas vapors, oil, . What is a smart way to take most of this off without compromising the screening area. Thanks, Jeff

Re: Air cleaner lid cleanup
Jeff, I just did my 63 air cleaner lid and used chrome cleaner and very fine steel wool and looks like new.New England chapter member, 63 Convert. 327/340- Chapter/Regional/national Top Flight, 72 coupe- chapter and regional Top Flight.- Top

Re: Air cleaner lid cleanup
Jim, the top is great. A nice piece, except for the carb stains. Ed,might be a silly question but did you go over the screening lightly? Thank you all. Ill show results.68 L79 Convertible: Triple Black: Work In Progress, Body off. Now on!

Jeff, yes I did and the silk screening still looks good, I don't know how that stuff is applied but has held up well.New England chapter member, 63 Convert. 327/340- Chapter/Regional/national Top Flight, 72 coupe- chapter and regional Top Flight.- Top

Re: Air cleaner lid cleanup
I sprayed some simple green ,let it set for a few minutes then put 3 inches of Dawn in the sink and lightly rubbed with a 3M scotchbrite . Results were amazing . Ed you were right. What ever they used to silkscreen was very durable. I took before and after pics with the iPad but still won't work. It will work on the test page but not here. I'm sure it's me.Attached Files68 L79 Convertible: Triple Black: Work In Progress, Body off. Now on!
