Interior Dash Too Shinny

I cleaned the dash of DW's mini-van. It's a Nissan with a big grey plastic dash. I used Meguiar's NXT Cockpit Shine. She complained that it made the dash to shinny and reflected badly in the windshield (windshield cleaned with Stoners).

What should I use that would be good for the interior dash without making a shine that reflects on the windshield?

You can remove that dressing with Simple Green and water and then use Meguiar's Instant Interior Detail Spray that won't leave any shine. Did you buff the NXT after applying it?

303 Protectant or Poorboys Natural Look for a matte sheen, or Megs Quik Interior Cleaner for cleaning with absolutely no finish.

Stay away from NXT protectant, it's too shiny, it will reflect sunshine in your eyes, making it unsafe driving....303 protectant, Pinnacle vinyl and rubber will be your best choice.

Thanks to everyone for the advice. I'll give some of these products a try.

I just tried PB's Natural Look for the 1st time yesterday. I tried it one of my wife's handbag's (Dooney & Burke). I we were pleased with the results as it darkened the leather a little masking spots from the fast environmental exposure of everyday use.
Second I went to work on the interiors of our cars. Application was pretty easy. I used a MF applicator(these are very handy)and squirted a little on the applicator and massaged it into the surface. A minute it later I went over the surfaces with a MF towel for a light buffing. My interior is quiet roomy. I couldn't be happier with the results and nice subtle shine. A step above matte.

I've treid 303 & Natural look and I like both as far as looks go (matte) the only down fall to 303 is the strong chemical smell.

How long does the bubblegum smell of the DP product last for?
