trying to clean up and refurbish red inner fenders, they are originals and old looking, has anyone tackled these and with what.

I don't know if this would adversely affect the red inner fenders, but I tackled the black inner fenders on my '69 with lots of time and lacquer thinner. They cleaned up to look like new.

I have do 3 sets. I used the Sem's, Flame red, looks close match. You really need to clean them good.and follow their instructions. and use their cleaner also. If you sand any part. or ruff scratch pad. prime them good, so you don't see the sanding scratches, I did not do this on the first set I did.

As rcorrigan5 has said lacquer thinner works. Oven cleaner works great also. To bring back the colour when they go white or pink, you can use a heat gun or propane torch. This is the tricky part and I know it sounds scary, obviously to much heat and you will damage them. If you are going to try, go very lightly, equivalent to not putting a hot dog straight into the middle of the fire! If you have old black ones around you can practise on them. As far as painting, SEM Portello red is the closest match I have found.
