How do I keep the interior clean

I was in another AZ members car and his dash has nice black tone to it. Meaning you could see the fake grains in the plastic. While mine doesn't have the black it is more like a grey or faded. I have used 303 and dash away but i don't get the same results.

I am wondering if i need to clean it more often and will a sunshade help?

Sunshade will definitely help. I used one for 18 years on my just-sold '92 Legend Coupe, and the interior still looked new.

I've been wondering this myself; my upper dash which is black is starting to look faded in a few areas. Also, it always looks streaky after cleaning from some angle no matter how many times I go over it. My OCD comes out when handling that dash!

303 Aerospace Protectant doesn't contain any cleaning chemicals, but it is one of the best UV-B protection product available. Try n APC like P21s Total Auto Wash and then something to replace the plactiziers in the vinyl (Iz Cockpit Premium) which ensures that there is no reflection on the windshield, thus reducing visibility. Alternate with a UV-B protection (303™ Space Protectant or Optimum Protectant Plus
