| What do "you" use on your dash ??? |
| Adam | I'm not a big Armour All fan, but I am looking for the very best substance to keep my crack-free dash in good condition. Someone suggested a product called "Vinylex". Has anyone used this product ?, is there a better alternative ???
Thanks to anyone who has an idea.

| Jon 86 745 MS | Adam, I like to use a product by Leatherique called Pristin Clean. It's a pretty good product and seems not to leave a film that attracts dirt and dust.
If you have a crack free dash be sure to use a windshield cover to protect it from the sun. Crack free dash is a rare item. Keep up the good work.

| Adam | Thank you very much Jon.
I've been given a ton of off-the-shelf recommendations. The only problem is that most of them say "Just keep using it". This makes me nervous as I would like to find something that is more gentle to the original material. The idea that there will be a perpetual reapplication process due to the oxidation of the product applied says to me that it's recycling with a solvent base. Basically, it's drying out of the material and in the process drying out the material. No bueno.
Where would I find this Pristin Clean product by Leatherique ?.
Oh and as far as the windshield cover, I use one as well as a dash cover. I've heard so many on the boards complain that their e23 is almost perfect except for the dash, that I consider myself very lucky that the original owner (I'm #2), garaged, and covered it for the first 16 yrs. : ) Mui bueno.
Get back to me when you can or email me, I'm very interested in pursuing your recommendation !!
Thanks again !!

| Adam | Larry,
This particular product is specifically for leather, am I correct ?. Jon seems to like the way it works on his dash. Will this keep a certain amount of elasticity to the vinyl ?. Just curious.
Adam PS Thanks for the link, I checked it out, also found the pic nice too. : )

They have different products for different Apps, I would take Jon's offer, he won't steer you wrong. And go from there.
Best wishes.
