Default Cleaning/Coating "Leather" Dash on C7 Z06 3LZ car

What woud you recommend to clean and coat the above referenced dash.

I realize it may have a factory "plastic-like", so should i be using vinyl cleaner/protection coating, or leather cleaner/protectant?

I am also do not want to add any products that create more refective sheen, as it can cause seeing out of the windshield more difficult.

Finally, i prefer to use GYEON products (leather/vinyl cleaners and protection coatings).

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Can't really recommend a cleaner but, Adam's Leather Conditioner does an excellent job restoring natural luster. No glossy sheen just a natural new look on vinyl/leather.

Most here use Areospace 303. Great product with no silicone and gives a nice natural finish without the greasy fake shine other products have.

I have tried many different expensive cleaners, conditioners, and protectants. I got tired of using 3 different products for each of the various materials used inside my cars' interiors. Luckily, I found something I really like that pretty much does it all, and it is a good value to me. Since the large majority of leather used in today's cars is actually coated with a type of plastic, I ditched all my leather-specific conditioners. I just use "Rejuvenation Nation" from Honest Wash. It comes in a big bottle, it is recommended for both leather and synthetic interior materials, and it both cleans and conditions. It even has a very "leatherish" scent to it. It dries fast, isn't greasy, and you can buff it off for a nice satin look. I actually ordered a second bottle recently.

Oh, they throw in a free microfiber towel when you buy a bottle, too. Pretty good deal. 32oz and a towel for under $15.

Here you go.......BTW you can use all of these products on your leather seats, dash & door panels.

I doubt that the dash would need the Leather cleaner, wouldn't be that dirty. I would use our Interior Detailer.

My understanding is GM says to use a damp microfiber towel. Nothing else.
