Guys and gals ,I am cheap and like things that work that are cheap. I use store brand(dollarstore) babyoil on my seats ,dashpad,doorpanels ,kickpanels ,weatherstrips and anything else vinyl or plastic.It looks good and a little goes a long way. Just put some on a microfiber towel and wipe it on .I have done this for years and will continue to use it. I keep a small bottle in the trunk all the time.

I dont know why all the negatives about armour-all but it works like a champ for me ... just a note though, many dont realize that armour-all makes a "low-lustre" product also that keeps the glare down in the bright sun .... vette owners know what I mean.

One thing though, DO NOT use armour-all on your atv seats .... stoopid me! LOL

I use Johnson's Baby Oil. About 3-4 drops on the rag and wipe down the dash. I know, I know----- "I don't want an oily residue on my car"... Wah!!!!!!

If you use too much-- yes, it will leave some behind. But only use a small amount and it protects the dash and other surfaces perfectly. A guy at Mother's told me about this. I bought a bunch of other stuff from him at a show and he said to try it. Works great !!!!!

thats the same thing I've done on my dash pads, put a little drop of oil and it really goes well just don't put too much as Trophyman said if you don't want to mess your dash Try that!

I don't really like using armour-all in my chevelle. It works a lot better in my Audi. But to be honest I never really clean the inside of my chevelle cause it never gets dirty.

I use baby oil on my dash ,seats ,door panels and steering wheel. I just put a little on a clean cloth and wipe it on and then wipe it again with a dry cloth. It is also great on door and trunk weatherstrip and its cheaper than the other stuff.

One of the best, non-greasy products you can use on your car is 303 Aerospace protectant. If you search the product you will see it mentioned on countless car forums and typically is one of the highest rated, although there are many alternatives as already mentioned here. Just throwing my $.02 out there, as that is about all it is worth
