Awesome! I hope you like it as much as I do. Just remember to get the best results you'll need to clean the surface you want to protect prior to application. I like to use Meguiar's APC, but there's also DP Interior Cleaner, Meguiar's Interior Quick Detailer, and some people use diluted Woolite.

Just received this product and it is very very good. I love the finish is leaves and i hope i don't have the streaking problems. I have tried other interior protestants and they left the dash blotchy, but the non greasy/glossy finish is a winner in my book.

I have been using this for the last couple of months and really like it. When I first starting using it, I was also getting the blochiness and was struggling to get an even finish. What I discovererd was that DP likes a completely clean surface. I believe that some of the blochiness was caused by there still being 303/meuiars/etc. protectant on the dash remaining from my previous details and the DP was affected by what is underneath it. Now, before I apply the DP, I clean my dash thoroughly with Griot's interior cleaner and it seems to go down much more evenly.

Big ups to DP. Thanks for the review MikeyC!

A clean surface seems to help prevent the blotchiness. I haven't had that problem in a while though for some reason. Maybe there was some kind of residue left on my dash from an old protectant. In fact, I just put some on the other day and getting an even appearance took zero effort.

When i applied the protectant for the first time, there was no residue on the dash and i got a very good even coat even after a few days.
