well, its come time for me to get a good protectant on the dash, now that the top is starting to come down a lot more. for the past 5 months of owning the 06, i've just used interior microfiber to clean the dash and most parts on the inside. i used to have an 03, so with that dash i used the basic protectant, which would always make it shiny. however, due to the different dash material on the 06, i want to keep it from being glossy, but yet protected. have any of you 06/07 owners found something to protect the dash but minimal on the shine if none at all? i'll use F21 for the rest on the interior, but just a little scared to throw it on the dash. any help would be great! thanks

vinylex is the most shiny... 303 and raggtopp are fairly close in the low shine dept.

it mainly depends on how you use it. for high shine, put lots on, let it sit and then reapply. for low shine, just wipe on and wipe off. spray it on the rag- not on the dash

Just to clarify, vynilex shine can be controlled by quantity. I hate the shiny looks (armorall) so a little bit of vynilex cleans and protects, but doesnt shine at all. Im a big fan~!

 

MikeyC did this review last year...as I recall it's supposed to give excellent protection with a a VERY matte look. Haven't tried it myself yet, as I still have tons of 303.

You only need a small amount of Vinylex to get the job done. After applying wait about 15 minutes for it to absorb into the vinyl, and then buff off any excess with a MF towel. You should be left with a nice matte finish afterwards

 

is vinylex the stuff made by lexol? thought i saw this stuff at pep boys.

 

awesome link! thanks

 

yup- thats it... happens to be my first choice, but i also let it shine a bit

 

Absolutely zero shine from this product. It darkens up the plastic a bit, but that's pretty much it. It gives a much more matte look than any other protectant I've used including 303, Vinylex, Armor All, Poorboy's Natural Look, and many others.
