fabric cleaning
Can anyone tell me what to clean my plane with after a day at the field? It's white worldtex and as you know, not as easy to clean the fuel off as mono.
Thanks for your help...

RE: fabric cleaning
I had good luck with 409 and a soft (REAL soft) brush. Spray it on till its dripping, then brush it in all directions. Wipe it off and repeat till its clean. Expect to clean it this way every time you fly or it'll get dirtier and dirtier if you just use Windex to clean.
Another way to keep it cleaner is to give it a topcoat of something like polyurethane to fill the weave a bit.

RE: fabric cleaning
Try this in a hidden spot first...works well on WorldTex Cub yellow...and MicaFilm[8D]
WD40. followed by soap and water..
Have used Go-Jo, but if you rub too hard it takes of some of the paint on the covering.
