Dash cleaner
Whats the best product for cleaning the dash and doors on a C6. MY wife used a damp cloth with just water and my dash ended up with a wite haze all over the interior. just wondering what works the best for interior cleaning.
Thanks in Advance

I use clean water and a microfiber cloth with zero problems. I think most of the vinyl interior products are just wallet lighteners. For the leather surfaces-what little there really is, I use Zanio leather products which seem to work great(works great on my shoes too!)

I have the Griot's cleaner but do you also use the vinyl/rubber treatments as well, or just the clear interior cleaner? My dash seems to pull every bit of dust from even the cleanest cloths and add a ton of dust to the dash. It like trying to clean soft rubber on the dash. Same with the doors. Strangest material I have ever seen on a dash, in the Vette. I'm trying to clean up the discoloration that I got on the dash when I installed the dash letters from RPI. The cleaning solution really messed up my dash and it looks like crap now.

The dash is covered in some kind of wax so I doubt any of the treatments are actually doing anything. To repair the dash finish you need to use some old fashion mahogany colored boot paste wax and don't buff it shinny-(don't ask how I know this and avoid dash lettering

I used the can foam auto carpet cleaner on my other cars.
It cleans well and doesn’t leave a shine.
The finish product looks factory.
I haven’t used it yet on my c6 but over the many years I have had no problems.
