Meguairs Quick Interior Detailer

Just used the Meguairs Quick Interior Detailer and I must say I was very impressed. I used AA a couple times but I did notice it wasn't right for our dash material. The Meguairs stuff cleaned up soda and food stains easily and gave the dash and other plastics a clean, new look. Nice stuff, I recommend it, plus it leaves no glossy, slippery residue like AA.

I spray Endust for electronics on my California Duster and just get the dust off. Fingerprints on the dash bezel come right off with Invisible Glass (the amonia in Windex scares me). I don't "treat" it with anything, just use a windshield sun screen to keep it from cracking.

i used AA on the dash in my 300m for 3 years and then stopped because i got tired of the glare and now there is a big crack in the dash... i just figured it was from the AZ sun/heat but i'm sure the AA had something to do with it

Just clean w/ hot soapy water, but not to soapy. Or you can use interior cleaner. I've used autoglym, it's alright.

Some have said that you can get this at boat supply stores.

When in doubt, google it...

So do you have to buy a cleaner and put that on, and then put 303 on or does it also clean and protect?

Do not use armour all on any clear plastis in the car (dash, stereo face). The guy who had my taco before me used to armour all the whole thing and now the plastic is fuzzy.

303 is great stuff(pricey though)....its primarily used for marine applications, so it's very good at uv protection....aa is like putting a film of oil on your dash(imo)

I'll clean if it's really, really dirty, but usually just 303 it w/o anything else.
