Surf City Dash Away Review

Product: Surf City Dash Away

I tried surf city dash away on all hard interior trim pieces of a vehicle this Saturday and in my opinion it is a great dressing for those that either personally like or have customers that like a matte finish….I obviously cannot yet comment on durability

Packaging: label design is great, it screams “car guy” with an interior shot of an old bel air looking just perfect!


Spray Bottle: One thing I like about the SC spray products is that they give really healthy sprays per pump. You really can do a lot with ½ a spray… It makes it nice for big areas where you can just do one sweeping spray instead of 2..

Label Instructions: The instructions are straight and to the point, product worked exactly as stated. It’s always nice to see a money back product guarantee on products as well.

Smell: It has a real masculine smell, the smell and the initial “car guy” feel of the packaging are very well coupled.

I intentionally got a bit of overspray on the windshield to see how difficult it would be to come off and it was no problem.

Comments, questions always welcome

One before 2 afters

Nice review! So is this a protectant, or a cleaner, or both?

Hey Klumzy... I was wondering the same thing, here's the reply I recieved:

Dash Away is a cleaner for the entire interior – it works on all surfaces: plastic, vinyl, leather and carpet. It is great at spot removal on seats, carpets, etc. It also protects against UVA and UVB. It protects as it cleans.

We also have UV protectants in Beyond Black Tire Pro and in some other products, such as Speed Demon. Hot Rod Protective Detailer is the strongest UV Protectant (A and B) that we have – its Micron Adhesion Technology binds the protectants, so they stay on and last for a long time.

I only see a minimal difference when compared to my go to 303 - only a tad more matte.... It is a bit more cost effective as well...

Of course bud... that's the cool thing about new line, trying the stuff out and puttinga review out there for all to read and decide if they want to give it a try...

Hope this review helps those that may be considering a new interior cleaner/protectant!

Don't know how I missed this one. Thanks for the review MotorCity. It looks like it's good at cleaning and protecting.
