Re: Vinyl Going Sticky

That might work; at this stage I’m quite open to suggestions.
I’ve observed some details, the sticky tactile coated items (eg door grips) are a different kettle of fish and not really what I’m fussed with here - got a method for them already.
The upper part of the door card is vinyl with a thin PE or PET foam backing. Stickiness on these parts, seems to come from the outside and therefore has a good prospect of being cleaned up.
The armrests are vinyl type skin that’s bonded to a medium firm, foam rubber type underlay of about 5mm thickness. Not spray glued or vacuumed but a much stronger, moulded and formed bond.
I believe the foam rubber underneath is breaking down, either the stickiness starts here or with a reaction to the vinyl overlaid. I don’t feel these are “saveable” but should be replaced/re-trimmed.
