Default OK. Need a interior dressing for my dashboard, from Cdn Tire

My supply of 303 is done/lost. I need something non-glossy for my dash on the Boxster, Jetta and CRV.

Anyone use a Meguairs or Mothers Product from Cdn Tire?

Prefer a nice yummy smell too.

Thx,
Peter

Peter, you can still get 303 from eshine.ca, I believe. It really is worth finding more of, in my opinion.

if you'r e gonna get something at Canadian tire get the autoglym. Porsche dealer used to sell it and i have used it exclusively for years. i usually stock up when it goes on sale for half price though. You will not be dissapointed.

I have not used the Autoglym but I am a fan and have both the 303 and the Einszett.

I was out at CT this afternoon. I was going to get the autoglym but I didn't see anything on the package about UV protection

I found "Turtle Wax ICE Total Interior Care" (a milky white liquid) in a spray bottle with UV blockers and tried it on the dash and door panels of the Jetta. Nice low gloss finish. $10

The dash on my boxster has a little more shine from the 303 tx I gave it before I put it away in October. I'll see how this turtle product compares.

None of the suggestions given earlier were in stock at eshine. If I'm not happy with the turtle when it's time to 'dress' the boxster, I'll hopefully have funds to splurge on some fancy eshine stuff

I feel for you, Peter. Unfortunately, Eshine is often out of stock and it can be very frustrating trying to complete an order and get what you want in a timely manner. This can make it expensive when it comes to shipping. Detailers Domain is an excellent choice if you can pick up your order south of the border. If you were close to the GTA, I'd would gladly offer you some free product at a GTG.

Not from CTC; do they carry the professional line (tan coloured bottles) of Meguiar's products?

I have been using Meguiar's #40 Vinyl & Rubber Cleaner/Conditioner for years. Non-glossy? I buff it off after letting it sit a bit. Besides, a clean dash always has a certain amount of gloss to it.

The suppliers up here don't carry sizes larger then the standard spray bottle (I called eShine), so I get my products at Autogeek. They have 15% off and free CONUS shipping this weekend.

BTW, for shipping stuff just over the border use CBI. Excellent service, great rates. Used them a few times now for a number of things including tires/rims.

Bookmarked!

Pricing is OK if I only want one item (I can accept paying more), but I usually place larger orders and at that point, the pricing differential is notable.
