    She's gone but not forgotten.
    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?

    You guys have me worried about the AA now, I ordered some 303 from autogeek, sounds like some good stuff.

    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:eek:)....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.

    I DON"T use ArmorAll because it's is shiny, slippery and attracts dust.

    Also fears of the cracking rumor.

    But I do use the Klasse. It is dry after application. Bottle says, "no silicone". "Cleans and protects and has a UV filter".
