Hey guys, just a couple of quick questions

1 - what do you use to clean the dash of your truck with? Back when I gave a hoot about the last car, I used to use the Shell brand protectant, but unsure if there's anything better now .... ?

Plus, for those of us lucky enough to have a proper 4wd looking gx instead of a GXL-VX soccer-mom-mobile (tee hee hee), do you put any protectant on the black rear bumper? Ours came from the dealer with armorall (wouldn't even use it on the ride-on tyres.....) and within a day was a lovely shade of red dust .... You could probaably leave it bare and just keep washing, but I have nightmares about all the cr@ppy old black plastic trim you see on vehicles ....

Any thoughts?

I use pyroil citrus tyre shine, then i use a dust cloth to keep the dust off the dash. probabaly re coat every couple months.

Stevo,
I think the issue is polishing the bumper after application. All the silicone products need to be polished off and then the dust is shead rather than attracted. Same goes for the dash. I dont like the shine that appears with armorall when you use a generous amount. I wonder if the lanolin products would be ok as well especially if wiped of and dried.
