General Tech Degreaser - how would you clean this?

So not only is it a new bike in a can, it is a new truck and trailer in a can. It also makes for a great air freshener.

And if you use enough in your garage you can go sledding in the clouuuuds!

Good evening brothers and sisters. I would like to take a minute to preach to you out of the book of Paul.
I was skeptical at first, as I don’t really trust KTM Bro’s, but I put faith into following the teachings as outlined by @anderson750 above.

I bought a can of SC1 when I was picking up some parts at RMATV.

I have a door handle on my truck that is slightly faded, and has what looks like one big finger print of grease stuck in it. I have tried for YEARS to get it out. I have tried soap, hard pressure washing, and at least 4 different chemicals (turtle wax, armor all, ect) Each chemical would look good for a few minutes, and then dry out and right back to the big finger print and faded plastic.

I forgot to get a before photo, but while camping I sprayed the SC1 on the handle. Looked good, but I expected it to dry out quickly. IT NEVER DID!
I am 4 days in now, and it still looks black and shiny. I did notice that it collects dust more easily, but it wipes or blows right off.

I had to get all the mud off the camper from the weekend, so it was out and being cleaned. I decided to give it another try. Our camper has very faded fenders and paint. We have washed and cleaned them fairly often, but it always looks bad right after it dries. The fender is plastic, the skirting is painted aluminum.

I gave them a quick spray and wipe, and they were completely different.

I then did all the plastics on my truck from mirrors to bumper plastics. and am a happy person.

This is my testimony.

You inspired me to use it on the race van trim

So here’s another one, I put my buggy on its lid yesterday and during the recovery it lost some fluids directly into my cloth drivers seat. Any tips or tricks to extract/flush out the oil? Every time I sit down in it, I end up with an oily butt.

I don’t have any experience with that, but I’d probably try a wet vac and copious amounts of dishwasher detergent.

Test the area with brake clean see if it discolors it. If not brake clean followed by compressed air to blow it out then soap and water followed by compressed air again. If you can’t stick a shop vac hose to the underside to suck everything out as you blow it.

I don’t know your line of work but if you have access to someone with a parts cleaning bin that has fresh solvent that would work real well it’s similar to what used to be used in dry cleaning machines.

Again double check the color isn’t gonna run (one of your wife’s white dish towels will work put chemical on it rub it on seat the check towel for color) or whatever you use doesn’t have a negative effect on the padding.
