I got one of those mini-duster from the .99 store and it works great for quick cleaning.

I don't believe IS dash board is leather. If the car is new, can wipe off with simple duster.

However in the long run, may want to use some treatment to keep it from drying up by the sun.

For OTC, get Meg's QID. Doesn't leave any gloss like AA does.

Meg's Quick Interior Detailer is good for weekly dusting and maintanence. Its provides very little UV protection, and will cause discoloration/fading and cracking in the long run. Use a sunshade and some protectant such as Sonus or 303 (once a month) to maintain the dash.
