Cleaning Dash and other interior parts

[Charles Suitt]

Microfiber cleaning cloths seem to be doing a good job on the interior plastic surfaces for me, especially on the rough-surface dash area. Found them at Sam's Wholesale Club and keep a couple in our Prius. They're also handy around the house.

I've started using 303 Aerospace Protectant and am happy with the results. I had read, and agree, that it tends to repel dust. It also is supposed to greatly reduce deterioration due to UV exposure, so I have treated every conceivable plastic/rubber surface including rubber door gaskets, and headlights. Supposedly this stuff was developed for the aircraft industry, and in this punishing Florida weather I figure I can use all the help I can get. Also, I just found on their website that you can get a bunch of free samples to try. Just Google 303 Products for their website.

By the way I am not associated with this product.

I'll second Karen's statements about 303. It takes a little technique to put it on the first time and not have it end up with streaks. Don't be discouraged. But, this stuff is so much better than Amorall and other low end products. I've given away all of these, they're so bad.

When I find some time, I'll look around for other high quality stuff as my only concern is that it brings out the magenta color in the black plastic pieces a tad.

FWIW, I tried the Meguiar's products and wasn't happy with the results. Only slightly better than Amorall...

In between applications, swifters take care of the dust....
