Vinyl dashboard question

[LDTcapitan]

I have a Mercedes Benz C300 and the entire dashboard and upper door area is a kind of rough vinyl so I was wondering, to dress it should I use VRT or the Leather and Interior cleaner? I live in Miami so I'm figuring the Leather and interior cleaner's higher SPF would be better.

 

Thanks,

Tony

Most of us tend to use the Leather Condioner for the type of use. It gives a nice clean look to the vinyl that isnt super shiny, and it also has a much higher spf than the VRT, and with a dash and interior thats a big plus.

The interior CLEANER is only to clean. The leather conditioner would be my choice and then buff to get less shine.

Depends on your desired result and/or need for protection.

 

Leather & Interior Conditioner will give you SPF 65 protection and dries a nice low gloss.

 

VRT offers SPF 30 and has a tad more gloss.

 

This picture really shows the difference well on the textured dash of a G8:

 

VRT ON THE RIGHT, LEATHER CONDITIONER ON THE LEFT, NAKED IN THE MIDDLE

Thanks to everyone for their insight!

 

Leather conditioner it is then! :D

Conditioner after the cleaner...you'll be amazed at how much is pulled out of the vinyl with the cleaner, then top it off and finish with the conditioner. You do not need to clean each time, just when its looking dirty.
