Default Clean Dashboard ????

What is a good product to use to clean the dash and interior? I used to use Armor All on the dash and it seemed to fog or cloud the windshield after it sat in the sun. A friend told me the vapors release and go on the windshield. The shine doesn't last that long anyway with Armor All Thanks.

I know Armor All makes a cleaner in pop up wipes. Do you just need your dash cleaned or protected or both. Have you tried any of the Meguiars products or Eagle One?

I was using Meguire's tech protect. I'd avoid Armor All at all costs. Especially on dashes. I've seen too many dashes crack like crazy because of Armor All.

I use aerospace protectant. It leaves a satin shine and doesnt leave that greasy feeling like a lot of products, plus it has sunblock in it to so it helps protect it from cracking. www.303products.com

If you want to "Clean" the dash I use the soft bristle brush attachment on the vacuum cleaner. It removes more then just wiping with a rag does.

If you want to "Protect" the dash I use Meguiar's products too.

Maguires products are always a good choice! I would defintly stay away from armor all. I used to use it all the time on my old car and the dash cracked in 3 places. I would use maguires or mothers products. Maguires has a new line of products called NXT generation, this stuff is amazing!!

do you have leather interior? i've been using armorall leather wipes which clean and condition the leather. they have been working really well for me so far. as for the dash, i clean it simply with warm soapy water and a rag. then i let it dry for a bit. but i can't remember for the life of me what it is i use to protect and shine. i'm sitting at work now so i can't go look. if i remember i'll get back to you.
