Cleaning Dash Plastics

[bluestreak56]

Only had my car a month and already it seems the black plastic dashboard areas need a clean! Any recommendations? I never found anything pertinent on my old Z4 but these feel a bit more rubbery than those were..

Have a look on the polished bliss website they have loads of stuff and some good offers on at the moment, i use auto finesse dressle on mine and that works well leaving a factory matt finish

What sort of marks are they? I have never had to use anything but a damp cloth to get the dust off.

The minute you start putting products on, is the minute you have created work. Better to just use warm clean water and a cloth. If your car is 2nd hand, a good cleaner to strip the products off the plastics... its the same with leathers.

Good point. Did the supplying dealer liberally used a load of shiny cockpit spray?

[bluestreak56]

Quite possibly as the car was tarted twice for purchase..

Havnt had a chance to get in the car yet but will hopefully do so on Tuesday.
