To be honest I don't remember it was a number of yrs ago. But at the shop I had at my disposal lots cleaners and the like. I think I would have used GoJo and a medium or soft abrasive Scotch pad. It was delicate work not to go too far and damage photo finish. There was an area that needed repair about 1"x2". I must have done a good job as I couldn't find it until I stared it down for several minutes.
When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
