I can't yet tell if the paint manufactures are blaming faulty paint jobs on the cleaning process or if folks are really ignoring instructions to get the parts clean. I know clean won't be an issue. I put everything through a three part cleaning process which exhausted me day after day for two weeks.

I'll let everyone here know how it turns out with photos when the interior is reinstalled. We'll see over the next few years if SEM products are as good as they claim.
