CG Silk Shine only for dark interiors?
After reading great things about Silk Shine here, I bought a gallon of it during one of the last sales! My interior is split between Black and Tan. I know it does wonders on black but is it worthwhile to put it on the tan areas or am I just wasting it?

Its not a waste exactly, because you are protecting those areas. I find that the dirt doesn't build up as fast with any protectant I've used. So It is worth while in this sense. You may not notice much different in a visual sense, but it does help in protecting the surface. Personally I find it too shiny for the dash myself. I've switched to PERL at 5:1, but silkshine is a good product.

I agree with srpurdy....Silk Shine is a good product....but I'm not a big fan of it on dash boards. I use it mostly on door panels. On dash boards, it's strictly Meguiars Natural Shine.

I wouldn't use it on a Lexus interior unless its watered down. I water it down to about 1:3 for my tires.

Another vote for PERL here. Did mine mixed at roughly 4:1 though for interior. I like the look of PERL, and it lasted on my tires (undiluted) for almost 5 weeks.

So you can dilute it like Hyper Dressing?

Good point. I didn't think about the protection factor.
