Hi there
What did you use to get the sticky off the floors? Need to do this on my 111s as well.
Thanks
Jon

Basically used a combination of things; hair dryer, a paint scraper and ‘sticky stuff’ remover. Takes a bit of time, but does the trick. Going to do the sill pads this weekend and then replace all the sticky pads with Velcro strips

So, bit more work on the car today. Weather is still pants, so trying to get the boring jobs out of the way and then I can enjoy driving the thing when the good weather comes.
Floors are now sorted 😁 I also managed to find an original wheel in as new condition on eBay, so swapped the old one out and put a new horn badge on to freshen up.
The heater control panel stickers go yellow over time, so I swapped that out for a new one. Also got some new stickers for the roof cant rails, all courtesy of divine handcraft.

Couple more bits done on the car. The dash had a couple of chips and a scratch. I managed to get a paint from Chipex to touch up. Result not as perfect as I’d like, but better than it was

Also, took the seats out. It was filthy, as you can see and I had a few lucky finds 😁; some cds, disposable contact lenses and a fat willys sticker!!

Next job is to give the tub a bit of a polish and get all the sticky residue removed from the sill pads. I’m going to drop the seats off to Allon white, along with the sill pads and roof to get them retrimmed. Thinking of going with something like this
