Which bulletin covered the Dash Fade issue?

I did a search, some people mentioned December 2005. But, unless I am looking at a different thing, I don't see it there.

Can anyone tell me or post a link please?

Problem: Dash Fade issue due to the chemical evaporating bla bla bla
Tried 303 Protectant, did not go away, then dealer applied their Honda protectant, it worked. Though, after washing, when wiping down the dashboard, the whiteish spots / marks came back. It had been one week since the dealer applied the protectant. So, I just wanted to read what the bulletin said exactly what they're supposed to do.

Thanks…

My dashboard seems to be very easily getting scuff marks when I wipe down. They don’t go away with anything I use. These marks look like white-ish in color.

Can anyone share or advise how to take care of this problem? I hate to have the dealership do it everytime?

First, use the Honda CLEANER- not the protectant - on a cloth/towel to wipe the dash. Buff completely off/dry.
Then apply the 303 Aerospace or Honda PROTECTANT to a towel and wipe the dash.

I thought there were some threads here indicating that the dealership would wipe the dash for you, or just give you the stuff to wipe/protect the dash yourselves. Otherwise, I think it's $7 per each bottle for the Honda stuff; the 303 was more like $15 for a small bottle. I have a pretty mild case of "ashy dash"- I wipe with a damp towel and then apply the 303 about once a year.
