Getting ready for a car show :D
Alright guys, Im entering my baby into a car show down here in Kettleman city! and im trying to get my interior to look at least a be less dirty, it looks great now, but i got dirt in all the little creviouses(sp?) How should i go about getting rid of it, I've scrubed, ive used a screwdriver and a pice of cloth around it, Heck i even used a foaming cleaner... all to no avail (well some of it came off, but a lot is still there) I've spent a good two days trying to get rid of all the dirt
.. Any suggestions on how to speed this up? or shouldi just keep at it?
Sorry for the novel

i took out my vents to clean them and removed the dash to get the crevice's in the speaker grill..
they sell small detailing brushes at most autoparts stores to get in those small areas.

gold crosslace wheels on a camaro are too obviously WRONG, lol
when you put camaro rims on a firebird the slightly more generic look of the rim lets you pull it off a little more, but i don't know about vice versa... they are VERY nice wheels though. i always liked the crosslaces, and those ones are especially clean.
my brother has an 85 firebird that he's fixing up, I bet he'd be interested in those.
how much?

oh yeah, and i use q-tips with the tip dipped in armor all (more to make the cotton more pliable than actually shine it up in there)
it'll work wonders.
buy really good q-tips though, cheapo's dont work so well, and even the most expensive big box of q-tips is like 5 bucks. lol
plan to use ALOT.
