Dash Cleaning ?

What do you guys use to clean your dash? Mine gets pretty dusty. I don't want armor all because I HATE the slick feeling that armor all makes. It gets your hands all sticky when you touch the damn dash. Do you just use a damp rag? Baby wipes? What do you use to clean your dash?

Re: Dash Cleaning ?

I use the same. I like the armor all and everything, but that slick surface it a magnet for new dust. I usually blow it out with my compressor before I clean it, but thats up to you.

Re: Dash Cleaning ?

I use the meguires interior wipes. It makes it look pretty nice without the slick feeling that armor all leaves.

Re: Dash Cleaning ?

i use that meguires next generation vinyl stuff. i originally got it for my tonneau cover and tested it on my dash and looks really good. It makes it shine some and doesnt really collect dust bad. I dont like the shine that armorall gives, looks kinda cheap to me, i dont know.

Re: Dash Cleaning ?

I use 303 Protectant, Invisible Glass, Megs QID, and even my QD spray. 303 gives off a matte shine and has some pretty good protection, Megs QID leaves a smooth, unshined "like new" surface, as well as a QD spray. The QD actually does a great job of cleaning dusty areas.

Re: Dash Cleaning ?

i use meguier's interior detailer spray with a microfiber towel and a small ultra fine microfiber towel for the dust for in-between cleanings. It picks up the dust like a magnet

Re: Dash Cleaning ?

I just tried the Meguiers Gold Class(?) interior. Works good, looks shiny, but doesn't feel sticky.
