Hello all, New to the forum, hope to learn alot. I have half of a "Gulf" highrise higway sign. It measures 80" wide by 72" tall. It is the kind that was used next to Interstate Highways, and was illuminated by some type of light bulb. I want to hang this sign inside my Studio. What is the best way to clean it. Mild soap and water? I would like to polish it up also. Do I use a plastic polish or would car wax be OK? I also have much older Goodyear sign that I think is porcelion. How do I clean and polish that also. Thanks in advance for your help guys. Hope to someday return the favor. J.R. IP: Logged |

WELCOME TO OLDGAS! I HAVE HAD MUCH LUCK USING A SIMPLE DISHWASHING (NOT DISHWASHER) DETERGENT AND HOT WATER (NOT SCALDING HOT BUT NOT WARM). DON'T USE ANYTHING ABRASIVE ON THE WHITE REARSIDE OR THE FRONT EITHER. I HAVE A SIGN LIKE YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT. THAT WHITE BACKSIDE IS TUFF SO USE A VERY SOFT BRISTLE SCRUB BRUSH IF DIRT OR AGE STAINS APPEAR. A SIMPLE CAR WAX LIKE MEGUIRE'S CLEANER WAX IS GOOD FOR THE FRONT SIDE. AS FOR YOU PORC SIGN...CLEANING WITH PRODUCTS SUCH AS SOFT SCRUB W/BLEACH OR BARKEEPS FRIEND ARE LIKELY TO WORK WELL. LET US KNOW HOW IT GOES! ~DOC IP: Logged |
