Need a new vinyl spray for L's interior

Hey all,

Never liked Armor All on the dash of my Mustang & Lightning, so tried Dupont's new "Teflon" interior dash / vinyl cleaner. I dont like it either. Leaves a nice matte finish, but seems to be "spotty" on my Lightnings light gray dash. Anyone have any suggestions on a better interior cleaner / protectant?

Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

303 is pretty decent stuff but, I still prefer Vinylex over the 303.

Even better, the Vinylex Wipes (as shown in the link above) are quick, easy to use, and are available at Pep Boys (among other locations). I use them ALL THE TIME!

Like 303, Vinylex is a bit pricey but, with both products, you get what you pay for here.

Ahhhh yes, the Vinylex wipes... I dig those as well. You can't go wrong with either product.

Is it true that Armor All lifts the plasticizers to the surface to make it look better, causing the majority of the plastic weak and brittle?

Thanks Dzervit and Rock, I appreciate the advice. Just got the call that the offices are closed tomorrow due to storm, so if Pep Boys is open, I'll swing by, pick some up, and scoot back to the garage for some interior detailing.

With storm in town, work was called off so made it to Pep Boys. They said they didnt carry 303 (only available thru online / mailorder?) but I did get last bottle of the Vinylex wipes and one bottle of the spray protectant. I really like the way it went on, and leaves a nice, slight shine. No mottling like the Dupont stuff I was using. Pleasant new car smell, too. Thanks for the advice, Rockpick.
