Cleaning the dash and vinyls. Want gloss!!!

Ok. I know alot of you do not prefer
The dash being glossed up but i saw a
Used TL at a dealer and whatever they did
To the dash and vinyl areas along the door
Really brought out the black. It was all glossed
Up and looked amazing.

So I'd like to achieve that. Products like
Aerospace are nice and yes they clean but
I want to bring out the black rather than
Leave it clean but looking dull.

Armor all? Any other suggestions ?

Meguiar's Supreme Shine. Makes it super glossy, especially if you use two coats. If it's too glossy just use a microfiber towel and rub it down. It leaves the super clean look without all the gloss!

actually..the dash doesn't shine up as well as the vinyl along the top of the doors.. so there is no glare at all.. and i used alot of the stuff.. quite satisfied. everything looks so damn clean..lovin it!

yes, but when you give that dust a place to get stuck to, ie the wet glossy dash....

not sure about the states but the acura dealers here in canada have a kit called "diamond kit"...when i bought my car it looked super clean but couldnt get the same results after wards so i asked the dealer where i got car and he said they use the "diamond" products in bulk. so picked up the kit and it works like a charm!! try it someday!
