Dashboard cleaner

The dashboard top in my car is looking dull and has some greyish streaks on it. Polishing with spray and cloth doesn't do much.

Do you guys have any recommendations for a dashboard cleaner and/or dashboard shine? LL.B (Hons) - University of Derby

One of the kids got me one of them cleaning packs I think from Halfirds some timeback, in it was Turtle wax fresh shine cockpit spray. Used it a couple weeks ago and was well inpress with the results and its still looks clean weeks later.

I hate shiney dashboards and the reflection you get from them on the windscreen at night so I use Matt finish spray from Simoniz. Also has a pleasant lemon fragrance.

I agree, matt finish is far better, the shiny looks a bit cheap!

I have just been to the local motor discount store and picked up a bottle of Meguiars natural shine protectant (they didn't have Turtle Wax in stock).

It's very good and as the name suggests it has given it a 'natural shine' rather than making it look too glossy and cheap. It also has UV protectant apparently and Scotchguard.

It has done the trick anyway Thumbs Up LL.B (Hons) - University of Derby

Try 303 aerospace protectant. It does leave a shinny finish like Armor all does and it actually protects your dashboard. It has SPF 40 in it. I use that in everything. All of my stuff looks new! Cuatro Por Cuatro

Use a computer screen cleaner as it is anti static as well
