Hood liner cleanup
Does anyone have a suggestion on a safe way to clean the hood liner? I've tried to vacuum the liner but the dust and dirt seem embedded into the liner. I plan to paint the logo and would like to start with a clean liner.
Thanks in advance!

Silly me! 
CLICK! I know this "hood seal"; thanks for the reminder.
Sometimes I have a tendency to make things harder than they have to be.
Thanks for the advice.

I have yet figured out how to clean my custom painted hoodliner without removing from the hood. I don't want to remove the hoodliner everytime I clean it.

Paula posted last week on how to clean your hoodliner. If I remember correctly you just pat in with a damp rag. Might want to search the threads from last week. Hope this helps.

a damp rag will leave little specs of cloth on the hoodliner, i.e. ghost turds.
