I did the van dash, too, and for all the scratches it had in it, it looks
GREAT!
How is it with dust, though? It seems kind of waxy, like it would ATTRACT
dust!
I also tried it on a window glass...NICE!!!
Back in the old days, I used to take a real good wax and wax the insides
of the windows. They would fog up more readily, but they would also clear
faster. And, NO smoke would stick to them (ahem...ANY kind of smoke! ;),
and when it fianlly did, it was easier to clean.
