Leather care and dash

Featured Replies

So I've been reading here about leather care and all and so I picked up lexol cleaner and conditioner, Ok but what about the dash? No one really said anything but how about Meguiar's natural Shine Protectant? Anyone ever use this? I did not get the glossy one of this because the sun bothers me when it reflects off the dash.

I am not familiar with the product, but gotta think trying just a dab the size of a postage stamp on pass side will tell you what gloss level the product will produce.

 

I agree with you, I don't like products that produce a bright shine when applied to the dash board. Just produces too much glare, and doesn't look good.

I use mcguires on all my cars. it actually restores and protects the plastic/vinyl you apply it to. Armor all destroys your plastics over time

Yeah I wont use Armor all anymore plus I hated the feel and smell of it.

yeah just reminds me of Vaseline. that's a lot cheaper than armor all anyways :lol:

 

ew.

armor all blows. I have used meguiars finally, i dont mind spending the 5 bucks or more for a bottle. I used some on my 86 3door and like the finish, not gresy or residue, and the smell is pleasant, somewhat fruit and cream smelling. Well, since i have my car apart, i have been detailing the back side of all y plastic panels to get the dust off, total inside and out 'hypo allergenec' detail

 

Before i have used wd40 and silicone spray to refresh plastic and rubber bits with no adverse affect.

 

I have used the lexol stuff in a volvo, it's like a lotion for the leather, since it is cow skin.

this stuff smelled ok but when I got the car it smelled good it's a non smoker I was impressed how good the leather was when I got it.. just a little wear on the side for the driver going in and out but thats it.
