thespeedracer- do you mean cleaner instead of clear?


raggtopp for vinyl is an occasional go to in my list.
Fixed

Do you find that raggtopp makes the dash too glossy? I used it once and it made my dash as glossy as the dash (black) in my old integra.

i've been very happy with the Werkstat exterior products, so i purchased their Satin Prot treatment for vinyl, plastic, etc. supposed to be non-greasy/shiny. i plan to give the interior some attention this weekend, with this and the leather institute products.

I use Armor All Protective Gel on the dash, doors, and non-leather center console and steering wheel parts. Looks great even two weeks later!

What? Because I don't use the "S2K standard 303"? I prefer a clean dash that doesn't shine, and that is what this product does. Until I can get 303 locally (I live in BFE Kansas), I'll continue using something tried and true. I've been through at least a dozen other interior products, and this one is my favorite.

Are you saying this is a bad product that will absolutely ruin my dash? My 9 year old dash still looks as fresh as the day it came out of the factory.

I think he was just giving you a hard time because generally Armol All is very greasy and doesn't leave a matte finish.

If you have a chance, try 1z Cockpit Premium. I used to be a fan of 303, but Cockpit Premium leaves such a nice clean finish and is much easier to apply than 303.

Yes, the Armor All spray is glossy and greasy, akin to the Black Magic interior line products. On that note, Black Magic is the worst product I have used for interior protection, because the greasy layer never evaporates or dries up.

Armor All Protectant Gel is No grease, leaves a matte finish. Need pictures?

If I can remember, I'll try 303 and 1z next time I'm home. Chicago has everything local!
