If not armor all then what?
A recent post had a few non armor all users. If you guys don't use it what do you use instead? Looking for options. Thanks

Being an Adam's dealer, I admit to having a slight bias, but really the Adam's product line is a complete line of products for every facet of helping your Corvette reach it's shine potential. Adam's has products for cleaning the interior, polishing and protecting the paint, treating the rubber and trim, cleaning the glass and polishing the shiney metal!
If I can answer any specific questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch with me!

I use nothing but Adams products. Been using his products for the past 5 years. His Super VRT is what I use on the tires as it does not sling off and get all over the body and it does not wash off in the rain. I also use it on all my weather stripping.

303 Aerospace is easily the best protectant I've ever used and it can be applied to practically anything. It has heavy-duty UV-blockers and has a low-sheen finish if you use it sparingly. It lasts a long time as well and is great on exterior surfaces that need protection from the sun and other elements. It's all I'll use now on all my plastics. You can get it at many marine supply stores or from forum vendor Autogeek.

Here's a shot of my interior with 303 used on all the plastic.

The Armour All urban legend has some basis in truth like all UL's. Back in the day 20 yrs ago it was blamed for causing cracking in dashes and it did. Then they changed formulas and no more issues since that time many years ago. Just like GM since it built the Vega and Citation many people still believe they build the same crappy cars. Nothing could be farther from the truth these days in both cases.

I use many different products. But I mostly use a good leather cleaner on every piece of the inside. No issues. I think I'm using turtle currently.
That 303 stuff looks promising, I'll have to try some.
I used armour all many years as well with zero issues. But I don't use it anymore.

I had two dashes for my 1980 trans am. both were cracked to hell.
which was just an issue with the production of them.

There is no way I'm using Armor All on my interior. Never have, and never will...
I never understood why people liked there dash, and doors to feel "greasy" and "attract dust" with that crap...
I only use filtered water, and microfiber towels on my interior (Since the car was new 7yrs ago)
Only chemical I use on the interior is Zaino Z10 "Leather in a bottle" on the leather seats.
