Hi Joe,
I cleaned the wrinkle finish on my RAK with mild, non-abrasive soap like
Roy recommended. After it was clean (and dull) I used Scott's Liquid
Gold (for furniture) and the RAK still looks like new. I did all of that
three or four years ago when the paint was well past 50 years old. Good
luck with your project.
