    Friends,

    From time to time I find things in my tool case I can't remember what I bought it for. This was in with my gloves, spark plugs etc. It is white about 4" long and soft enough to bend. I can't for the life of me figure out what it is….

    Looks like pliable carpet pads. But I really have no idea. Could be anything.

    It is not a clay bar, does not really have an odor, like I said it can bend. I has to be car related as thats all I put in my tool chests. Its not fuel pads as I have those and they are thinner and felt.

    I just figured it out. I have a MOMO suede F1 wheel and this came with a brush to clean it. Sorry for the distraction…

    The pinball community swear by that stuff for cleaning playfields. It really does work.

    Amazingly well for cleaning things like the hard plastic kick panels in cars that get scuffed up.

    Thanks to all who posted,

    It is a suede cleaner I bought for my F1 suede Momo wheel and never used!
