  • Dash pad looking a little worn..any suggestions?

    As the title says, my dash pad is looking a little less shiny due to exposure to sunlight. There's nothing wrong with it, I just want it to look new again..anyone know (1) what the dash pad is made of (vinyl?) and (2) any good products that will restore it to a like-new finish? I had one of those sticky pads on there for a while and the sticky crap from it left a noticeable mark that cleaner will not seem to remove. Any suggestions would be very helpful...if I find out any info on this elsewhere I will update the thread for reference.

    im fairly certain the dash pad is just plastic.

    the best you can do is keep it clean and armoralled i guess.:(

    and get a sunshade!

    mine just cracked because i didnt have one.:mad:

      I guess I meant the actual dash, not the plastic piece that rests against the windshield.

      Anyway, I found the solution: WD-40 took the adhesive right off. I used it to clean the entire dash as well and then used all purpose cleaner to get it competely clean. Then I applied 303 Aerospace and it looks great.

      I have a sunshade: I don't think 303 holds up to the sun as well as AA, but it doesn't attract dust.
