As a kid (still a kid, but years ago) I would armor the crap out of a car!! Just loved the way it looked, but thats just TO MUCH!!

EEKKKK!!!!

I used that stuff once on the first car I had...never again...Wow.

Better use the seat belts when sitting in that thing. That'd be like sitting in a frying pan sprayed with Pam! Yikes!

It needs a second coat! I think once you tried to sit down you would slip right out!

One of the Armorall-sponsored Porsches lost several places at a Daytona 24-hour: they used the product on the body of the car, and when a conflict with another racer led to a need for body-work with racer tape, it wouldn't stick. They had to use a solvent on the body before they could effect repairs and rejoin the race.

I bought a gallon of Armorall in the early 70s, used it on everything. Vinyl top and plastic rear window on my TR7 was like new when I sold it after ten years. The only problem I ever had was the garage floor was pretty slippery for quit a while.

Otherwise, used per instructions (Generous spray, let it sit 12 hours or overnight, wipe down thoroughly), I still prefer it for plenty of vinyl and rubber uses, including tire sidewalls. Wouldn't use it on leather, though.

My wife likes to use it on her car's paint: not as shiny-bright as real polish and wax, but easy to clean and last a long time.

I remember when that stuff came out. In those days the interior of my Corvair was vinyl. I thought it was great stuff until I went to step on the brake and my foot slipped off. At least in those days I had quicker reflexes.

Those seats are dripping!

[ShowCar]

Theres enough there to do about 4-5 interiors. Thats just nuts. I could just see the back of someones pants or shirt after sitting in that.
New marketing ad, "If you like greasy, shiny, and cant touch it Armor all is for you."

I read years ago that Armor All was bad for the vinyl & plastic, so I quit using it. But wow, that guy is not afraid to use it, and a lot of it!!

[RmGardner]

When Armor All first came out it was hard on vinyl and it would crack. Before Armor All I used Pledge. Rick

TRUE STORY

called wife on a Friday morning and told her I was leaving work early. Asked if she wanted to clean up the motorcycle and make a weekend run to the mountains. She was estactic and said hurry home.

got home, loaded up...mtc looked great...went up the drive way and made r/hand turn....there we were, both us laying in the road w/ a mtc on top of us. Needless to say, no more Armor All at our house. Had to wipe down seat w/ alchol and went on our way for a laughing good time! That was back in the late 80's.

[Matts]

I always used armour all before a hot date. That way when I made a hard right turn she would end up in my lap.

Just like STP, makes everything feel smoother, quieter, longer! I've probably used a 55 gallon drum of Armor All in my lifetime. Used to bet on a bottle of Armor All and a bottle of 409 adding $200 to the price of any old used car i had for sale.......
