Rewhen using cleaning products on dash stay away from anything with alcohol in it....
...alcohol will burn off in sunlight, drying out the dash. Also keep it in the garage when not driving it, that's the best way to keep it fresh. Not sure if there is a interior cleaning product with sunblock in it, I use a quick-detail cleaner for the outside body with sunblock. Seems to work okay.

You ABSOLUTEY have to keep it out of the sun!!
I bought a dash from "GT-style" and after a couple of days of August sun, the thing started to crack!
Sine then, I've Armoralled it and covered it during sunny days......

Yes - I'll have to consider this product
Car has spent a lot of time in garages. Last year when it spent the summer stored in the woods it got partial shade but I put aluminum foil on the dash & steering wheel also.
