What do you use to clean and polish the dash?

The dash in the Z isn't leather nor plastic. What products do you guys use to polish and clean?

i dont "polish" the dash, but i use SpeedShine and a MF towel to clean it. then follow it up with a light coat of Prima Nero 50/50 with water.

if the interior is dirty, then you can buy InteriorCleaner from griots. works great for carpet stains.

I use Meguiars quick interior detailer wipes. Doesn't leave a greasy/shiny mess.

I have only previously wiped it down with a damp cloth. But I just ordered some Adams Interior Detailer. Going to give it a go this weekend and will see how it does.

Mr. Kenchan -- Is CRC MAF Cleaner OK to use on the dash?

No no no.

Kenchan would advise you to use motor oil. It'll leave a nice sheen. If you use synthetic, you'll get torque steer
