Bit of a random one, but you know when something from years ago suddenly just jumps back into your memory ? does anyone remember an interior spray from the 1980's, maybe early 90's (at least that's when I think I last heard of this original product) there are several sprays currently available that carry this name, but the original was stupidly shiny, you could pretty much see your face in your dashboard ?

do you remember this, and is it indeed actually still made, under new packaging ?

Back when I was in the car spares/accessories game in the 80's we used to sell a product called cockpit shine made by a company called Spectra who sold a range of car cleaning products and also aerosol paints. I believe that Spectra were bought out by Simoniz in the 90's.

Wasn't that the stuff spray painters hated? Silicon laced and got everywhere causing fish eyes in their work.
