Default Off the wall.

When I picked up my Vette a few years ago it had all the original goodies. My off the wall is about the owners manual. The cover is in great shape, the pen, the notepad..etc. The manual on the other hand presented an issue, when I went to pull it out it was stuck. I eventually got it out with no damage and the inside pages where in great condition also, so I took a little alcohol and wiped the inside of the cover and the out side of the book also. It still sticks, even tried a light dusting of baby powder, it still sticks. It's as though the plastic on the inside got soft and stayed that way. I have never had this experience with any owners manuals and their cover before. Has anyone else seen or heard of this? Any suggestions or solutions?

I'm starting to see why you were ignored at the Tony Luke thing.

Feel free to ask this and other nonsensical questions in the bar thread

I don't know. But I am getting stir crazy enough that little thing like that will start to get my attention.

I spent and hour reseating a mudguard on my C6 cause I did not like the way it was mounted. Ha! Looking good now.
