Default Dashboard cleaning

What products are everyone using to clean or dust there new NX dashboards. I remember reading somewhere that some dashboards were getting scratches on them. So what is the BEST product and method.

I’ve been using a spray of water and vinegar. Works well, leaves no residue and thrifty.

I’ve been using STP Son of a Gun on all our Lexus for years. Spray a little on a soft cloth.

No smell, a little sheen and not greasy. Seems to help with the dust sticking.

I use a damp cloth most of the time.

As with anything, do not get it on the cluster screen, nav or other shiny surfaces.

I use Meguiars Interior Cleaner. 2-3 sprays on a microfiber towel works great. You can find it at Walmart and most car parts stores.

A Tech guy at the dealership told me he keeps a swiffer in his glove box and periodically when sitting at a red light he just 'dusts' the dash board, etc. It's a great idea. I do it in the NX.

What a great idea. Always a good day when I learn something new. As to the original question, I use Adam’s total interior cleaner and a clean microfiber cloth. As mentioned, the dash does scratch easily, so no scrubbing.

I use Griot's Garage interior detailer and it works great as a maintenance product. Works on the infotainment screen and safe to use on all surfaces including the seats.

Only use a plush microfiber on the dash and very light pressure as it scratches very easily.

I just use a duster type brush to wipe over all the interior plastics, and then twice a year give them a spray and wipe with 303 aerospace protectant. I do the same with the leather seats.
