Cleaning the dash and bouncing mirrors!
Discussion
Hi Guys
Spent the day clenaing the car today - making the most of the winter sunshine and the hose pipe ban being lifted!
Anyhow, been looking at the inside and just a bit worried what to clean the dash with?
Are all Nobles the same with the rubbery plastic dash if so anyone recommend a good product to bling it up a bit!
Also, Im sure I read somewhere that someone had managed to come up with a way that stopped the wing mirrors vibrating out of place when driving along. Is this the case or have I lost the plot a bit!
Thanks
Monkee

It's a wierd material painted matt Black and can be easily scuffed. Use plain soap (Simple brand works OK!) applied with a soft brush and dry it off with a wet cloth. When dry buff up with a dry cloth - most marks come off this way (and no other way!).
PS - don't try to use ANY common cleaning products - you'll be sorry!

Thanks for the info AMG
I will try the soap and water to see how I get on.
Its a funny finish looking at mine closely its got loads of little nicks and scratches on it hopefully these won't show up too much when its clean!

That's the thing, they look like permanent scrathes but seem to come off with a clean!
BTW, the dash fabrication comes from Germany (Germany-SA-Barwell - a circuitous route to us!).
I've got a great way of stopping the mirrors moving...

Has anyone tried their replacement wiper blade option?

Tried the soap and water trick and it got rid of 90% of the marks...
Was going to leave it at that but decided to grit my teeth and try some of this I had lying around in the cupboard. I use it on the trim and splitter normally

and its come up a treat
Would recommend it if you are feeling brave! though think I will only use it when its really bad andstick to the soap and water for the weekly clean.
