Re: Dash & Door Cleaner

You can use any over the counter APC (All Purpose Cleaner.)
Diluted to the proper ratio of course

For deep cleaning i'd suggest using p21s total auto wash. For general maintenance/protection, I use poorboys natural look.

I usually wipe it down with some window cleaner.

It's cheap, it smells like lemons, and it works the best!

It got the smell of vomit and cigarette smoke out of my truck in about 3 washes !!!

Re: Dash & Door Cleaner

I use Armor-All cleaning wipes (Purple label) to clean the dash and doors.
Then I put the shine on it with Armor-All protectant wipes (Yellow label)

Re: Dash & Door Cleaner

I can't stand armor-all products... I've heard they dry out the plastic unless you keep it on there constantly...

I've had pretty good success with the Meguiars interior spray stuff...

That's just a myth. It doesn't dry it out at all. I have always used this stuff and not once have had a dried out dash. If this was so I would never put it on there.

Re: Dash & Door Cleaner

I use Invisible Glass on everything in my truck. Windows (obviously), dash, door panels, console, rubber vinyl floor, and floor mats. Works great, and does not leave that armor all grease shine.
