How to get the perfect shine inside..

Hello! I've been looking for a product you put on the dashboard inside the car to get the perfect shine.

I tryed TO many things that just "melt" in and dont even make it any better.
I tryed TO many products that with other words, dont give me what I need.


My dream is to find a cream, gel, spray, whatever that I apply on the dash. look at the picture I've found on this site. (sorry if the right owner gets mad becouse I didnt ask him first, but I think its ok).

im not taht good to explain with the right words, so Im just putting up a picture that will make this easyer :P


Look at the arrows and you'll see where I want to get a super shine and a deep dark-shiny apperance..


anyone know the best to use? =)

That's too shiny for me. I prefer something with a more natural looking finish. Have you tried just straight armor-all? I hear they also make a super shiny product. I would try those.

No no no, Armor All is bad! It will leave a very slippery, greasy finish.

Get Aerospace 303 Protectant (might have to order online) or you can also use Zaino Z16 (Perfect Tire Gloss), both of which contain lots of SPF, are very durable, and are water-based.

You may also want to look into Ultima Interior Guard Plus. I haven't tried this one yet but it looks very promising.

Have you looked at the picture he posted? The car there has a slippery, greasy finish. Aerospace 303 isn't as shiny as that picture. Dunno about the others

strange, but I always liked it "greasy, glossy/call it what u like"..

Becouse I got 1 personal problem:

and that is that I cant stand to have a filthy car.. I escpcially hate the little dust corns that you easy/often can see when in full daylight.. Hate them.. I have to "dust" it all away before leaving the car.. damn what a psycho I am.. at least I'm admitting it:P

And in my head..... it seems that the glossy/greasyness either hide the dust more, or some strange un-logical way make the dust disappear...

hehe

Glossy doesn't make it look like a new car. New cars are clean, and have a deep clean look, but aren't shiny/glossy/greasy looking. The greasy/glossy just makes the dust sticky and easier to clean with a rag. Swiffer dusters work wonders on non-greasy dashboards.
