I won't go for amourall. They tend to evaporate and leave a stain on the glass. Else they are too glossy. 303 protectent is very good brand to use. Makes dash nice and black without that glossy look. No doubt about it!

Don't use Armour All. I don't know if it still does but it used to have a little alcohal. This causes the seat to crack and dry out. Its like butting tire shine on seats.

i don't use anything at all but just a damp towel.? once you use armour all, you have to keep using it quite often or it'll turn "white" .

All I use is a California dash duster:

I use it on the entire interior--especially useful on a black interior.

I like to use a damp microfiber towel to keep the dust off. I would stay away from armor all as it can over time turn the dash white as stated earlier & plus i dont care for the shine on the interior I'd rather it on the exterior. If you feel your dash needs a "treatment" then i would recomend Lexol's vinyl cleaner, when you first apply it, it appears shiney then as it dries it gives a slight sheen to the vinyl.
