Default What to use on dash?

What are you using on your dash for protection. The dash on my C7 is way different from my C-6's dash. I would like to purchase something from Autozone, PepBoys etc. No mail order. Thanks

I notice a fair amount of dash reflection in the windshield (black dash). Does Mothers VLR affect the shininess of the dash?

Adams products are great. They're listed in the Forum vendors section.

You paid a healthy price for your C7 so spend a few bucks and protect it the right way.....

Lexon Vinylex Protectant for the top portion of the dashboard. Cleans, protects and leaves a non-shinny, yet rich looking finish that lasts.

C7, 2LT (non-leather dash)

Meguiars makes a good product that leaves a matte finish.

I love Zaino Z-10 Leather in a Bottle on everything inside the car. It looks great, has UV protection and smells fantastic.

Check with them to see if they have any dealers in your area.

Poorboys is awesome. I'm a first-time user and will never go back to the junk I used to use. This stuff looks fantastic and maintains its look for literally three months.
