shiny dash

[insomnia]

my dash reflectes onto my windshield bad, what would any of you recommend to 'dull' it up?

i took it through a car was place and even though I told them not to, they soaked it in armor all...

[xWCDx]

well armor all is how you DONT do it. I use Zaino everything for the interior and exterior. there is also some stuff called 301 protectant (you can get a free sample from there site, I found that to work well.

But what I use now on these dashes is just plain out water and a microfiber towel. Before I dampen the towel I will wipe the dash to rid of dust and then use the damp towel.

For your situation and the grease on your dash, I'd use a damp towel (micro fiber) and keep going over it, dont use any more products as they will just seal in that nasty grease.

[Zaino guy]

Thats what I do too. Zaino or 303 aerospace. Wipe all the armorall off with a mild cleaner. It's like flypaper for your interior..............

[xWCDx]

303!! thats what it is. good stuff to use.

Armorall makes a "Dull" finish product... you might be able to pick up a bottle of that.. and use it to remove the shiney stuff and dull it up a bit...

This is a great product for a natural look:

I only use unscented, alcohol free baby wipes to clean the interior plastic. They are just damp enough, strong enough to scrub with, and leave NO residue. You can even get the scented ones if you want your interior to smell like a baby's butt. Just make sure to get an alcohol free brand.

first, get that crap off yer dash NOW!
armorall is no friend to any dash. Never has been. makes dashes an armorall junkie and if not fed after being doused once, it will promote cracking. Soapy water will get it off. I don't recomend putting anything else on it after that. It can be dusted off and/or washed but doesn't require anything outside of that.
... and don't be lettin fools wash yer ride, man. Thats how stuff gets jacked up.

I put one of these on my dash

That's what I did, but don't get a light color.

OMG.... in all my years of detailing vehicles I have NEVER used armor all on anything, not even the tires. I just dont understand why some people do this. When I clean my own 300, all I use on my dash is just a damp chamois and wipe.

Another problem with putting such prodcuts as Armour All on anything in the interior is that due to its chemical make up, it will out-gass. That is it evaporate over time and will leave a your windows with a fog like residue on them, and I HATE cleaning the inside of the windshield.
This is true of all petroleum based protectant prodcuts, but AA seems to be the worst.
It's best to used a waterbased product (no petroleum additives) as it will give the plastic some protection but without the fake shine and outgassing properites.

For the dash I use the California Duster. That's it.
