neo Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Have been using a damp shammy leather and a little warm soapy water to clean the dashboard and other interior plastic panels but it really isn't cleaning it that well now after almost 4 years which products would you recommend for cleaning the dash/interior plastics, don't really want a shiny finish tho ???

GIXXERUK Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 the advantage of 303 is that it contains sunscreen so it will stop plastics bleaching in the sun big fan of anything poorboys produce though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M13KYF Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 bought some of the poorboys dash stuff and used it this weekend. Very impressed with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H5 Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Stew, the SSR stuff is very very good. Just the right amount of cut to do exactly what it says on the tin. I used it on the new front end when I got it and it really did remove all the swirls. That, with the Diamond Glaze on top, was brilliant. I've got the dash stuff too, I agree Mike, good stuff.

Stew Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 The dash stuff is brilliant and leaves the perfect finish in my opinion. I might try the SSR stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
