Is it just me or are you suffering from the melted/sticky dash issue?

Surprised it doesn't easily peel off after sitting in the sun all day.
K thanks - I'll try that!

I've only been on the forum for about 3 weeks - not sure what issue you're referring too.

It's where your car sits in the sun and the dashboard gets shiny and, eventually, sticky.

I don't think I have that issue, fortunately.

I wiped everything down again last night with a damp microfiber cloth, and it seems to have done the trick. I was also able to get the residue off the dash and windshield with the damp towel and my fingernail.

Thanks for the tips guys!

303 is the one product I always use on tires, plastic trim, rubber gaskets around doors, hood and trunk. It is the BOMB! Anything rubber or plastic...
