= AMAZING!!
Has anybody tried them?? They make your dash, (any vinyl parts on your car) AMAZINGLY shiney and new looking. Just passing the words, if you're detailing your car.. give it a shot!

I dont like the wipes much at all but armorall spray is the best stuff to use on the dash, i think anyway

I used them and didn't like them at all. For some reason they didn't make my dash shiney. I use this stuff called "son of a gun" and it does the trick. Not sure why, but it does so I'm sticking with it :)

I used them while ago and my dash is still shiny. :) I used the spray but it didn't shine as much as the wipes. They clean the crap out of the dash too.

hmm.. I havnt found anything that makes my dash shiney.. LOL
I tried them and didn't like them. Only because they would miss spots. I think it is because they are too thin, and so don't 'push' into all the creases & curves like a rolled up Armorall soaked rag will. For small spots & little touch ups they worked OK. I just prefer using the spray & a rag.
I also found that once the bottle was opened, they would dry out if you didn't use them up fast enough. That may also have contributed to their lack of coverage.

I use the stuff all the time on my GA and other cars...works great! Really leaves a nice shine and looks like new. A must-have for your car cleaning supplies.
:woot:

Spraying Armor-All on a cloth is the same thing but the wipes are far more convenient. The only thing is with the stupid wipes containers, the wipes tend to dry out if you don't use them within a few months of buying them. I noticed recently they changed the container a bit to prevent/lessen this but I haven't tried that out yet. They're pretty expensive, like $8-$10 per thing of wipes. It's much more cost effective to use the actual bottles of stuff (Protectant, Glass Cleaner, Interior/Multipurpose Cleaner, etc.) and cloths/sponges.

Yanno why it gets so shiney? Because it's bringing out all the natural oils and moisture in the dash... It will make it dry and crack way before it's time :(
Try the Auto Swiffer :)

The wipes are ok... nice and easy and convenient, as stated before - but I LOVE their glass wipes! I don't think I've found anything else that keeps my windshield that streak free for that long.

I have used both, And I find that DUPONTS vinyl cleaner is TONS shinier. I'd post pics of my dash but I'm entirely to lazy.

i dont like any of those wipes. just dont do as good IMO. i dont like armor all protectant. i like to use the turtle wax formula 2001. what i've used for a long time. my dash hasn't been cleaned in about 2 months and still looks good

i stay away from greasy armorall after you put it on it has a slippery feeling and i hate it so i switched to Mequires interior detailer and it works like a charm and feels like it should like plastic not slippery.
