What kind of protectent/cleaner on dash
I have an 03 civic with a black interior. I have been using (Armor All)detailers advantage protectent for the interior, but its a pain to use so I'm thinking of switching to something else, what do you recomend?, I want a one step product, Is vinylex any good?

How does water do a nice job of protecting? Poorboy's Natural Look has been by far the best stuff I have ever used. Cleans really nice, protects good, and leaves a VERY nice smell behind.

Rep Power: 339 meguiars natural shine (i think is what its called)... its like 8 buck a bottle. well worth it. it's gives it a real brilliant shine without that cheap look like the other products.

however, since the towel has been dried up, it doesn't exactly making any whitish layer on my dash.....and less sticky and stuff..

Rep Power: 0 Well, if you want that new look and not some shiny greasy look I will highly recommend Poorboy's Natrual Look. We have found it to be the best thing to use. It leaves that new look, protects, and smells great.

no zenmaster.. meguiars makes two gold class options for this.. 1 is the wipes.. it's a little canister that looks like a babywipes thing... ~$5 for 25 wipes... they are soaked with the second option .. 2) the meguiars gold class spray.. this is what you'll use if u want to use your own towels/etc..
i have both products.. i use this on my dash, other plastic interior panels, as well as my leather... and everything is beautiful, grease-free, and protected...

I use the wipes for the dash/doorpanels/etc... then i spray the spray on the seats for a larger area and no problems with overspray (windshield/etc)... then i use the already damp wipes from the dash/etc to wipe the spray

Rep Power: 0 I am leaning towards the Vinylex or the Meguiers natural shine for the interior but im still not sure. I've been using Armor all for a long time, whats the best way to clean that stuff off?
