Thanks for all of the ideas! I thought about using a hose, but I was worried that it would take the stickers off. Maybe I'll be brave with it and try that out.
I honestly didn't cover it when I stored it there because I thought it would be there for a couple of months - tops. Then life sort of got in the way. Let's just say I'm really glad to get back to a point where I can display my terror drome. And now I have some cool 25th anniversary figures to display with it! |

If EXTREMELY dusty, get canned air.
Use a dry Swiffer to get the rest off. I also use water damp paper towels, then a dry paper towel. For the corners and smaller area, q-tip... lots of q-tip. I also use a water spray bottle and high squirt, and blast the corners and hard to reach parts. After it's dry I use the Novus plastic polish system (novuspolish) All of my vehicles look virtually brand new. It works wonders on clear canopies and windshields, removing many of the fine scratches.

I use Simple Green to clean up any grime on my vehicles, combined with the q-tips. Cotton balls work really well, conforming into tight spaces.
The yellowing on vehicles is like oxidation, its a chemical thing. The plastic polish works really really well for windshields. Never use alcohol.
