issue with inside door panel?

sonic370 · 09-02-2010, 04:40 PM

Just wondering if anyone else is having this same problem i'm having with the inside door panel. the black cloth or fabric is staring to fade way to quick.
bought the car new back in may it is an 09 with only 7500 miles on it.

the other side looks perfect. and when i drive i don't rub or lean against the drivers door panel. looks like this upgraded interior isn't going to ware well.

You sure what looks like fading isn't just dead skin and dust? Give it a good scrub.

No issues with mine. I've had my car since July 2009.

I noticed that in my driver door panel too. I cleaned it and seems to come back...

you may be on to something.what would you use to clean the fabric with?

Griot's interior cleaner.

Compressor and an airgun!

Like kenchan said Griot's is pretty good. Just use a lint free rag and give it a good scrub with some interior cleaner.

Its probably just dust and other airborne thingies. Rub it down.

Thanks i'm going to try a product from griots this weekend.
it just seems more faded than dusty or dirty.

Smething i use is a very soft bristled brush, like you would use to clean your hands. it tends to knock the dust off and brings the knap back up on the material. this is on one with the touring pkg and im not sure if the panel on the base is different.
