Dash Preservative Opinions???

What do most folks use to preserve the dash covers etc. these days that
really works?

I'm leaning towards a silicon based solution as I think stuff like
amorall suck...

Probably the best thing is a fold up reflector.

 

^ Thats the best, because it blocks the sun altogether.

 

Do NOT use anything at all excpt *plain water*. The vinyls in use today are
very durable on their own. The snake oils sold for vinyl "preservation" are
more likely to cause long-term damage as their components break down under
heat and UV.

If you're in a very hot environment like Arizona, get a light-colored cloth
dash cover to keep heat and UV away from the vinyl, or get the wife to sew
one up.

 

I like the dash cover idea but absolutely refuse to "get a wife" to do
anything. I remember after using amorall on my vintage truck's original
dash material, it fell apart within a couple of months...
