Best cleaners and conditioners for dash/door panels/center console?

I looked around and it seems a lot of people use "303", no clue what that is and I can't seem to find anything that shows more detail.

I am trying to clean and condition the center console, dash and other pieces in the car. I think a while back I remember reference to Vinylex, but am not sure. What is the cleaner of choice that will help keep everything conditioned well such as the dash and panels (even the rubbery finish stuff like on the ash tray front in the rear seats).

A damp cloth is all I use to clean the plastic bit.

I follow that up with a cloth sprayed with a 50/50 mixture of Aerospace 303 and water. 303 is one of the few products that won't leave your dash looking shiny, greasy or like there is something on it.

303 is also good to treat the rubber door seals.

We bought the 10liter bottle of it and we'll need to order another soon enough.


This is the best interior product hands down bar none. If you have something with a little cleaning ability, a light fresh scent that isn't overwhelming, leaves the perfect finish, is not slick at all so you can use it on the steering wheel and pedals, and offers a little protection - this is the product you've been looking for. We've had many many customers go and purchase this stuff after seeing how amazing it really is. You won't be disappointed.

Love this stuff. I've been using it for a couple of years now and I won't use anything else. Sonus makes some pretty good stuff as well but it leaves just the slightest bit of shine so I won't use it on the dash.

I've used 303 and it's an excellent product.

Lately, I've been using the 1Z (Einszett) http://www.1z-usa.com/ product line on my interior and rubber door seals, etc. The dash, etc. looks perfectly matte ... no shine. I've been very pleased with the results.
