STP son-of-a-gun... NOW THERES a product I used alot of back in the day. Maybe thats exactly why I hate my dash being shiny now!! lol. Barely ever used the AA products after reading bad things about them in the late 80's early 90's.

Yes, yes, and yes to AA, bleech white, SOS pads, beach towels, dish soap that " really cuts the grease", brushes, chamois, squeegees, vinegar and newspaper, ammonia and newspaper. But the worst was when I used nail polish remover on the plastic clear lens of my dash (I have no idea why?).
Damn, I have gotten better.

What's wrong with Bleche-Wite? I don't think it works much different from an APC besides the gagging fumes. I still use it occasionally. Is there something wrong with it?

Remember the black plastic/rubber bumpers? If I recall it even had a black plastic side rail.
Still, I loved that car more than any other I have owned. | Omg !!! I had one as well in red. I loved that car. I used Armour All by the gallon on that thing !!!

Ok, I'm bumping this.......
So I tried looking....is AA really that bad for interiors, or is it just a subpar product to others on the market.....Can someone explain to me why everyone hates it so much?
Am I damaging my interior by using this, or does it just not last as long. I get the crap as presents from my family, so I should probably tell them to stop 
Thanks!  | |

Thanks! | For me, it's extremely greasy, extremely glossy (blinding in sun on black dash), and it just doesn't last. So many better products out there IMO, including other OTC items.

Having said that the formula of AA has changed vastly and is a very different product from when I used to use it. It's name was tarnished in its heyday when it used non water based silicones. | She knows what she likes on the tires of her 4 vehicles.
