    Ah the old Armourall on the seats trick, I had an old Ford XWGT and I used to go bananas with the Armourall, all good till u are having a good hoon around and the poor bugger in the back just cant get any traction due to lack of rear belts, now I dont use Armoural at all as an upholstere told me it cracks vinyl from the inside out and makes it brittle, so now I just use Mrsheen as for getting it off have no idea, never put it on glass before, used it on chrome with mild success

    It's amazing this product is still on the market. I remember using it on a HK Holden years ago and witnessing the devastation it did to my pride and joys vinyl.

    I didn't say to use it on the tread... just the sidewalls.

    I've got some bad news for you all - the detailers in big car yards have buckets of this stuff that they paint onto tyres with a brush to give them that shiny colour

    I say again that meguires new car protectant doesn't have the problems associated with armourall.

    You shouldn't be using it on the seats either. There are dedicated leather products for that.

    I suggest that you use a specific clear polycarbonate, perspex cleaner
    The best I have found is "Plexus", which is available at any motorcycle dealeship.
    Admittedly, I have not tried to remove Armorall, which I believe is mainly silicone, but it sure cleans polymer clouding
    BUT do not use ammonia as it will discolour the tint.

    Cleaning Window Tint Film
    Window tint film is often applied to the inside windows to shade passengers or provide privacy. Window tint film is a thin sheet of Mylar plastic. Mylar easily scratches and will be destroyed by ammonia. To clean tinted windows, use mild cleaners and water only. Tint film that has been scratched can be polished with cleaners designed for the vinyl windows often found on convertible tops. The product I recommend for polishing and regular maintenance of window tint film is Plexus. Plexus comes in spray and is safe for use on plastic, plexiglass, and window tint film. In addition to polishing your window tint film, Plexus works great on your tail light and headlight covers.

    I did the same thing when i was living at blackall as a kid,i was doing carwashes for pocket money and polished this womans bundera with armorall she lived on a property out of town and when she came back the next day her car was complettly red dirt i sh** my pants when my old man come looking for me to explain lol..on the note of getting it off the glass ive found that using a mild cut polish works wonders,it makes your taillights come up like new aswell
