Default dashboard cleaning?

I've never had a car before with the kind of "rubberized" dash of the S2000... jusrt wondering what people recommend to clean it, or what not to use to clean it. Should I treat it any differently than a typical hard plastic dash?

You need to get your dog to lick it all over once a week after applying bacon fat

lot of us use vinylex... blue plastic bottle. sprays on and if you want it to shine, put on several coats.

another product is called 303.

also check out the wash and wax forum for more tips...

Use Grab-It cloths for a quick clean-up of dust and dirt.

I use 303. I also use 303 on the top and rear window. It makes the top look really nice

I second this idea. It works GREAT!!! It also is good for getting all the dust off the inside of the car after having the top down all day.

Preferably two dogs. A St. Bernard for the large flat areas and a chihuahua (sp.) for the hard to get places.

I agree with Hiro. Swiffer's work unbelievably well at removing the dust and then follow with Vinylex...
