^ I totally forgot about that thread, the funny thing is that since you posted that I now use the magic eraser to get the yellowing and streaks off the white parts of Nike's (Air Max 90).

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.
11 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.
986Forum: 1 discussions
0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.
1 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

I suggested a 'magic erasure' sold everywhere, and it worked!
Is anyone spraying suntan lotion around the car? Yellowing cushions have been a problem on boat cushions that come into contact with suntan lotion. I would try the Leatherworld Tech cleaner and then dye them if the cleaner did not work.
Try a solution of 20% meguiars apc and 80% distilled water. Do not spray the intended area rather on a toothbrush and work it into the leather.
Start off with 10% apc and go to 20 if you need to. Its strong stuff and needs to be diluted or you will damage the interior.
This should clean the leather to like new, but don't do it often. Finally finish up with a leather conditioner.
There's a famous German product line called Klasse. They have a product specifically for the interior previously known as VLRP (vinyl, leather, rubber,plastic) now called Klasse Cleaner Protectant. I would also give this a shot, another German product, called 1Z Leather while your in there cleaning stuff. It leaves the seats looking new, amazing how many layers of dyes from your jeans, pollution, etc. get stuck on a roadster interior.

^ I totally forgot about that thread, the funny thing is that since you posted that I now use the magic eraser to get the yellowing and streaks off the white parts of Nike's (Air Max 90). Works like a charm. Actually it works on all colors.

Be cautious where you use the 'magic' eraser. I had some scuffs on my dash that the eraser actually made worse (fortunately, I did it in a obscure location to test). Test in hidden location first. It will work in some areas, but others are more sensitive.
I think the rolls bars are more hearty and should be fine.
For the dash - ended up using Mequires Dash and Trim restorer, which worked okay.
