i just use a wet cloth..I dont like the greasy glossy look

 

303... I love the stuff. I use it on the dash, tires and my canoe. It leaves a nice clean look without the glossy vaseline look. Plus it has a great UV protectant in it. I buy it at the local marine/ boater's supply store.

 

303 Aerospace protectant is good. :thumbup:

For off the shelf stuff, I use Eagle One interior protectant. It's real thin and light. Not greasy. I only use it about once a month. I spray it on a small microfiber mitt that fits on my hand, so I can control where it goes, and not get any on the windshield.

The flat black finish seemed to scuff easily and I was a little concerned about it.

I applied Meguiar's NXT protectorant. The flat black is gone replaced my a low lustre finish. Not flat but not shiny. I like it a lot.

 

I use this stuf by Meguiars. Makes the interior look great on any vehicle including the Tacoma.

Here is a good detailers tip for you as well. Before you use it, or use some type of interior cleaner, use a Pledge "Grab-It" dust cloth on your dash and other interior trim. Works great to remove dust and other crap on the dash. Gives you a nice clean surface to work with. Just be sure you get a cloth, regardless of mfg, that is not treated with any thing like furniture polish/wax or lemon oil. Some of them have stuff on them. Just a regular Pldege Grab It cloth works great!

 

I also use the meguiars vinyl and rubber protectant.....little spendy but does a great job..keeps it clean with no sheen.

 

I use a wet microfiber towel to clean the interior. I like the "flat black" type of dash. It looks cool. I don't want it to be shiny. Plus sometimes those shines smell like ass, like Armour All.

My BMW has the "flat black" interior all around. Doors, dash, everything. I never use shine on it. Just wet microfiber.

 

nothing.
i installed a dashmat.

 

The dash is painted so be careful not to scratch it. I don't know if there is touch up paint for the dash. The last time I checked with the dealer there was none.

HUH? The black is a rubbery/plastic?

My dash feels like a hard plastic and is painted, I have alreay nicked the paint, very small spot but it seems to be white underneath, it looks like a lnt spec.

 

I use 303 on all our cars. I found a decent price online at spadepot dot com. I think the last time I checked, it was around $50 a gallon and shipping is like 3 bucks for everything your order. The reason I found it there is I use it on the hot tub cover, and it also works well on interior and tooneau. With five cars in the yard I go through about a gallon a year for everything. Leaves a nice flat finish too, without feeling greasy.

 

i use murphys oil soap on the interior

 

303 is the shizzle!

Use 303 on everything.
- Dash
- Tires
- Tonneau
- Vinyl

Others like Armor All contain silicones that will eventually dry and crack what you are trying to protect.

 

I use the armorall cleaning wipes.

Someone posted a link to Delphi's process to make those parts. That plastic is called "slush cast".
