Cleanin the dashpad...hardcore dirty.
 

Ok So I am making very good headway on my project truck. And for the older 80s dashpads, original. not cracked or damaged or nothing. It is filthy. It was so thick I had to lightly scrape with a putty knife to get the heavy stuff off first. Once I got that off I rubbed a lot more off with a rag but I want to get all the dirt out of the tiny grooves and such. What would be the best/worst stuff to use to get it completely clean? Like as if an auto detailer guy did it. I want this thing to shine.

get a mr clean magic eraser...those things make plastic look like new.

try some kind of cleaning foam with a small brush

Well I armor all'ed it a couple times and that got a **** load of it off but there is still a bunch of dirt in the small cracks I will try the magic eraser if not im not too worried about it. I just want to get it as clean as possible.

Armor all is crap all it does is make everything greasy, magic eraser is awesome you wont believe all the crap that they take out

yea magic eraser is pretty good
but next time you go off road, roll up the windows lol
