    Cleaning a dirty dash

    I have a 99 Acura Integra with a tan interior including the dash. The car has been very neglected throughout the years and I'm trying to get it back in tip-top shape. What cleaner and process would you guys use to clean the dirt and grime out of the little cracks and crevices of in the vinyl dash.

    Thanks for the info

    Its rather odd that the dash is the only surface that you seem concerned with. The reason I say this is because thats the one area ppl don't seem to try and ruin with their soda pops, coffee and such

    Anyway, go get a 1/2 paint brush for your vents and as far as the rest of it, just wipe down with a cotton towel thats been soaked in soap/apc and wipe clean

    I have a link for that. hahaha

    The reason I'm worried about the dash is because the rest of the interior cleaned up very nice but the dash still looks filthy to me. I am very particular about it because I stare at it all the time. lol And I don't have a pressure washer so that idea is out the window
