Dashboard Cleaning
Newbie here, been reading for awhile, but just signed up now that i finally have my 8!
Question for you, what do you guys use to clean the dash and interior? The dash has 2 different surfaces, do you use the same thing on each? Not sure what to use on those, i keep the dust off, but it's about time for a cleaning!
Also, what do you use on the inside of the doors (handles, etc...) I have water spots on my back door from opening in the rain!
Sorry for all the questions, any help is appreciated!

BTD--Congrats on your new 8! I hope you enjoy it!!
To answer your question, the majority opinion here is to stay away from high-shine products like Armor-All and opt for more matted protection, like 303 Aerospace Protectant. It's available online and at RV and marine/boat stores. The shinier the product, the more dangerous, because it can create a tremendous glare on the windshield when you're facing bright sunlight.
