Spruce up 2011 Avalon Dash Surface

Really like my new '11 Avalon Base - Blizzard pearl/Ivory. The dash surface is quite dull and wish to add some luster. Not to create blinding gloss.

Anyone with specific recommendation for a product to use that would not be oily/greasy? Have experimented a bit on side trim below window with "ehh" results.

Thanks,

D

303 Aerospace Protectant is what I use on my dash and door trim, good stuff.

Mothers VLR Vinyl-Leather-Rubber Cleaner and Conditioner is a great product that won't leave the dash shiny but will enrich the finish.

Thanks. In meantime, tried some Meguiar's Ultimate Quick Detailer, with fair to good results. Will try the above suggestions.

Some advice if you do use 303. It doesn't last too long, you'll need to re-apply it every 3-4 weeks or so. One good thing though, it doesn't produce a greasy film on the windshield after some time like ArmorAll does. 303 also provides UV protection too, isn't too shiny or greasy at all.
