Cloudy Instrument Panel

[Showroom Shine]

Glad to hear that you got the dash plastic clean. I just read about your problem. I think most of the time the problem is let go so long there is a build up and it's been baked on by the warm temps inside the vehicle. I have seen the cloudy look you spoke about on the inside of the plastic. Which can not be removed without taking the entire dash out. Big Problem & $$$$ Stay on it, do not neglect this area.

I went ahead and tried the PlastX. I didn't notice any marring, but PlastX leaves a protective film that may be covering that up. It did a pretty good job and removed maybe 80% of the problem. What remains is evidently deeper damage, but I am pretty happy with how it came out. You would really have to look hard from a particular angle in the right light in order to see anything.

Thanks Megan, I am going to give the Plex-All a try. I'm liking the DP line.

I am glad it worked for you.

The marring is not always apparent and may depend on the plastic material. I was doing some side by side comparisons on CD cases and noticed the difference but it was not a dramatic difference.

My instrument panel sits at a poorly designed angle so reflections are a problem so surface issues are more noticeable. I have used Meg's first too but I thought it could be better. I then went back to practice on CD cases to be sure I knew how the polishes broke down when I discovered the difference and ended up finishing it with Mothers. For many Meg's may be sufficient.

Many people have had success with using the plastic polish on a Mothers powerball.....may be an option for that last 20%.
