Clarify for me first... What are the body panels on the Fiero made of? Plastic? Fiberglass?
Do you guys use microfiber towels? Either for drying, removing wax/sealant, or quick detail wipe?
I am having a problem with the microfiber towels building up a good amount of static when I wipe it. It then takes less than 3 blocks for it to attract enough dust to pizz me off!
GM called the Fiero body panels "Enduraflex". There is no material known as "Enduraflex". This is a marketing term. Four different types of reinforced composite plastic are used in Fiero body panels:
SMC Sheet Molded Compound was used for the hood, roof, rear upper quarter, and rear decklid.
RRIM Reinforced Reaction Injection Molded urethane was used for fenders, door panels, and lower rear quarters. The rear lowers were later changed to injection molded nylon.
RIM Reaction Injected Molded urethane was used for front and rear fascias.
TPO Thermoplastic Olefin was used for rocker panels.
Bexley Resin Blow-Molded by DuPont This material (not fiberglass) was used for the spoiler or "wing" on all Fieros as far as we know. The supports are made of TPO.
