Anyone got any decent recommendations for a decent dash and door cards cleanerthere are loads on Halfords, and I presume the more expensive is the best, or is that just the idiot in me! Have one door with a few paint spray flecks on it, so could do with something a bit tasty and good! |

Turtlewax black in a flash, highly recommended and have always used it on rubber, plastic, dash etc. You can have it with a matt finish or gloss finish. It also lasts a long while unlike many other products, check out the reviews on Halfords site. It also works on all sorts of shades of black inc greys, its not a colourant its a colour refresher fluid.http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10001&langId=-1&productId=192883&catalogId=10151#tab3 The more you use it the longer it lasts, far superior than the plasticare colourant stuff as that can peel chip off etc, this stuff refreshes the original colour on all plastics rubber etc. ________________________________________ Pug fee`ver,Pick a Bogey, buy a Pug.

BeezWas pretty useless on the dash, didn't really even budge previous cleaning marks. But worked OK for the few bits outside So, I wouldn't recommend this for interior I am afraid. I need something to get into the plastic and take a layer off type of thing, the muck is pretty ingrained, might. |

I use Dodo juice quick detailer for general interior cleaning. Its not great for heavy stains but other than that, it doesnt leave a oily residue like some, cleans very easily and smells amazing! (doesnt taste as good as it smells though  )http://www.theultimatefinish.co.uk/dodo-juice/basics-of-bling-detailing-spray-500ml.aspx |

All purpose Cleaner - Flash etc is a cheap product ideal for that. I usually dilute it 8 or 10:1 and pop it in a spray bottle. Pop some on a sponge and get scrubbing. ________________________________________  |

No residue with the iso I use. That's why I use it - cleaning panels before wrapping! It is pure in a can, not a panel wipe etc. ________________________________________ Nothing to see here |

a skilled hand with a heat gun can also work wonders on certain plastics, makes it go deep black again if they were uv faded etc. be extra carefull though. you can melt things ________________________________________ the world is changed by people in sheds |
