I've been trying to clean my rocker cover with that spray on degreaser stuff where you spray on, let it soak and then hose it off but it does practically nothing. Any tips on how to clean the rocker cover?

yeh, i did that too, used the hard plastic bristle brush on it with degreaser waited, repeated, still looks like crap, the cover is so old, its probably been permanantely stained with oil.

close the bonnet and you cant see it. hahahaha, nah seriously maybe a better one from the wreckers as stated above or some wax & grease remover may lift a bit of it. How good is the Degreaser your using. Some of the dearer stuff is crap, buy the el-chepo stuff and its normally pretty good.

yeh, degreaser is pretty cheap, probably better off using coke to remove the stuff.

Remove it, take it to a metal polisher (Around $60). Then the upkeep is a pain but looks good IMO.

Ok, I found this thing in the house called miracle cleaner. Its a cloth with chemicals impregnated into it and is used for polishing jewelries. Its very old, ie: is literally from he 60's. and I tried it and it works great, the cloth is fully black by now but it still keeps polishing as it says on the bag. Anyway, upon closer inspection, I noticed there are a few cracks around the cover so I'll probably have to go to the wreckers and grab a new 1. Does anyone know if any of the other e-series rocker covers will fit over the 3.9 ea?
