Dashboard Cleaning... - Click HERE for Original Thread

The dashboard on our new (used) 2003 Pilot is a little dirty I'd like to find a product to clean it and the arm rest and the other palstic/rubberish interior finishes that are matte. Without adding anything remotley close to a shine. We test drove a Pilot at a dealer that had been armor all'd and it looked terrible all shiny and slick. I searched the forums and have seen some people mention to try meguiars interior detailing product as well as one from stoner's. I guess I am looking for a specific reccomendation for a product that will definitley not remove the matte look to these surfaces any feedback?

Stoner Trim Cleaner will do the job, but you likely have to order it online. I've never found it at any local retailers that carry Stoner products.

I'd just try a water dampened microfiber cloth, followed by a dry microfiber cloth first, though, with a light wiping motion.

You can also water down some Simple Green and use that.

You can start by applying Meguiars Interior detailer to initially clean the dashboard and plastic interior trim. The product is really good in removing dirt, coffee stains and grease left behind by careless service techs!

If you want to add UV protection and maintain the Matte/satin finish of the dashboard you can top it off with 303 aerospace protectant.

Meguiars interior QD is available from your local auto parts store while 303 is only available online.

If you want topnotch customer service you can purchase it from detailersparadise.com. I learned about them from another car forum and they have been very good in servicing their customers.

I picked up some Meguiar's Quik Detailer and I like it.
