i use alot of eastwood products. They have a good paint prep that I use alot. It cost around 10 dollars. One problem that i can think of is that some of your old paint absorbed alot of oil over the years. Its best to remove it all and start fresh. I also like their chassis black spray paint. It has that right look when it dries...like the factory satin look. I dont like krylon as their paints are thin and delicate dont last long and scratch easy. The chassis paint does not need primer. spray straight from the can....and last really long. it resist alot of chemicals....
Being interior I would suspect armor all if you are pretty sure it is silicone.
Probably the worst offender and it is likely enough someone used it in there in the lat 4 decades.
Our Painter banned the stuff from the entire shop where I worked 8 years ago.
Tell me when GW doesn't have good advice? Friggin' Jedi that one...

I'll only use Armorall on things I know I'll never refinish. Silicone is a great sealant and adhesive beyond that it's taboo in my book.
I guess I am guilty of the implication that anyone could have usec Armor All on Norwood in the last 4 decades. I admit I don't recall how long you have had him.
Time does fly, I'm closer to a quarter century than 2 decades with my Camaro at this point but yet I cannot vouch for all the products used on it prior, but I can openly admit I was not as knowledgable, careful or methodical when I was 17 as I am now at 41 especially when it comes to THE car.

Took delivery in '90, silicone has good shelf-life............ask a mortician.
Okay -- I want you to know that I went down to the shed in my pajamas and slippers - in the POURING RAIN to get you some info on the stuff I keep around the shed for PRE sanding prep! Use whatever. Note the OMNI IS VERY STRONG STUFF.... the PPG Acryli-Clean and the Eastwood Pre can be used on almost ANY paint.
It's 40 plus years of screwing stuff up -- learning the hard way... At some point you start to gather enough info to be really dangerous.
THe kind if education you don't get with a college degree.

Thank you buddy, hopefully one of the local supply houses has OMNI MS251
The Eastwood stuff is right up my alley considering it's rattle-can.
