[VACList] Re: Sticky walls and ceilings




I know this has been kicked around in the past but I don't recall this 
product being mentioned to get the sticky residue off ceilings and walls.  I
recently purchased a 74 Avion and incountered the usual problem I've noticed
and read about in several Airstreams.  I tried a fairly strong soulution of
Simple Green with little results. Next I tried Dawn dish detergent also with
no results.

The person from whom I purchased the Avion had mentioned a place in Michigan
that still serviced the aluminum Avions so I gave them a call.  They
recommended a tire cleaner called Wesle'y Bleche Wite. (spelling is
intentional and I think correct)  It worked great.  I haven't tried in on my
Airstream since it doesn't need cleaning but the problem in the Avion seems
the same as I've found in Airstreams.  I bought the tire cleaner at an
O'Reily's auto parts store.

Hope this helps someone else.
