TL Fading dash

Can't believe how fast our '05 dash is fading (in work garage 5 days/week, remainder street, Northern California). What is the best product to apply to protect and return the original luster to dash?

hi and welcome to acurazine. The fading of the dash is not caused by the sun, but by the migration of a chemical though the vinyl on the dash. There is a bullentin out for this issue from acura and the dealer is supposed to clean the dash board and then apply protectant. If you want to do this at home, a 6 to 1 woolite solution works the best for cleaning and some 303 Aerospace Protectant is good for conditioning.

You can get it a marine supply stores but I also saw it at a Kragen's auto parts store too.

I just did the 303 stuff, and it looked great for 6 months, but its time again.
I got the 303 at a canoe place, they take you out and pick you up, and I noticed they had the 303 in the store!
