    Hi.
    There are quite a few products on the market for cleaning and dressing the
    interior, though it depends on what condition they are in.
    If you could let me know I will try and help.

    Marko.

    Good suggestion,carpro PERL is a great product and can be diluted down to make it less glossy,

    Also consider Britemax interior cleaner and interior dressing, both great products also.

    I find back to black works wonders on the dash and door panels.
    Also I use baby wipes for cleaning the car as they do the same job as dashboard wipes for a fraction of the cost.

    Back to black is (or was the last time I checked) silicone based. It should be banned from general sale and definitely is not suitable for dashboard use, unless you like shiny shiny and the residue it's going to leave behind on both the dash and the windscreen.

    It's bloody awful stuff that valeters insist on using.

    Dashboards should be cleaned with a product properly formulated for that purpose.

    Stu sells some which would be suitable.

    I personally use either poorboys dressing or sonus cockpit cleaner. Both have a matt finish and don't stain the surrounding area.

    Yes back to black would be dangerous on dashboards due to the sheen/gloss,matt finish is always best on dashes as eshrules post.
