I discovered on my oxidized GPW AP1 top, if you put clear masking tape on it; it actually makes it viewable!

Just a heads up too. I used the rain-x headlight restoration kit and majority of the oxidation cleared up!

Sorry, a little dark... got home a little late and took this picture, but that's how bad the plastic is.

You should ask her BF, he posted on here!



My top is a little worse than yours, but yeah looks like its going to need a replacement if you really want it to be nice & clear. Clean AP1! I still remember when mine looked just like that! And its right next to a GPW!

I know her bf and her. We both hung out yesterday at a party. Pretty cool couple I'm sure other s2ki members have met him too.
