Default Dash protection?

Detailed the interior last night and i used armorall gel. With my previouse cars i was really happy with this poduct. On the doors and vinyl panels it looked allright but when i applied it to the smooth dashboard it had a splotched look (even after it dried) The bottle has been left in the car in the sun a couple time so that may have had something to do with it. But i imagine the unique texture of the dash might cause issues with any protectant.

Tell me what is working good for you. Its got to stand up to the florida sun.

check out the wash and wax forum!

i like to use 303 aerospace protectant for a very matte finish. i spray it on a microfiber towel and then work it into the dash. you can also use this stuff to protect your convertible top! i also use it on my tires. i love this stuff

303 will give it that deep new black factory look without being overly shiny or greasy. 303 also protects against UV.

What about Raggtop? I've been using Armor All also, but I kinda like the shiney finish on the vinyl around the door sill's and the radio door cover (I still have the AP1 Radio door ) Raggtop left a fairly Matte finish, which I like for my dash, so it isn't blinding. but other spots it would nice in.
