I dust the dash with one of those "wands" then I wipe it down with a damp chamois (spelling??) That works great. I NEVER put Armor All on the dash of the Vette. The door panels I use the same steps.

Re: Cleaning the interior (tomcatn)
I use Vinylex by Lexol, but I cut it with water to limit how much I wind up applying. I only do this a couple times a year, the rest of the time I just wipe down with a damp Absorber. I also use thos Pledge Grab-It dust cloths for quick dusting touchups.

I use 303 Aerospace Protectant on all interior vinyl and rubber surfaces. It leaves a new-car sheen. A Pledge Grab-it like product is hard to beat for quick touch-ups.

Re: Cleaning the interior (stevenll)
I CLEAN the interior about once every 3 months with either water and a little Dawn Soap or Joy Soap.
Weekly, along with my washing, I spray 303 Aerospace Protectant as my UV Protector. Cannot beat that.

I periodically clean with a soft damp cotton wash cloth. For dusting, I keep a Swiffer in the console. They're pretty good... available in supermarkets, and pick up dust without streaking. Last for several weeks/months, and cheap.

Re: Cleaning the interior (tomcatn)
Hi Tomcatn,
I am with Zarfen...That is the technique I use.
Plus....my interior gets a big blow job...from a leave blower as an attempt to flush all the dust particles out.
Lastly, I typically find lots of "trash" under the seats. So blow that underside out real good.
Just playing with words :jester ...but all true steps/findings/comments.

Re: Cleaning the interior (tomcatn)
I have a black dash with tan leather seats and panels. I use "Black Magic brand "dash protector on the dash.It looks new with out a shine and does NOT collect dust and does NOT leave finger prints. I use leather cleaner/ restored on the rest.
