Paint strippers?

A milder substitute could be acetone. Kaso try mo muna sa tagong part at baka lalong lumala problema, hehe.

DIY mo muna subukan mong pahiran ng Armor All baka sakaling ma-restore pa.

Back to Black or Tire Black (Autogard) lang yan, balik na kintab nyan

get an APC properly diluted to its proper ratio before using dressings (armor-all).

if im not mistaken, hindi cleaner ang armor-all. also, try to get a dedicated product for your dash.

make sure to re-wipe after applying your dressing to get a nice matte finish. greasy doesn't really work.

Yes, armor all is effective...until you stop using it. Then cracks start to appear. Those two gentlemen who say it works ever since is simply a testament to their consistent good upkeep of their cars. But thats just the point; you cannot stop using the product (a marketing execs dream). I agree with the statement that instant shoe polish causes cracking in shoe leather; this is due to its silicone content that seals in the pores in the leather. Leather needs to breathe and it will find a way to breathe, hence the cracks. Now I dont know if Armor All contains silicone but I do know my dash on my old car years ago cracked into a hundred pieces after I stopped using it.

For me nothing beats a thoroughly cleaned dashboard. You can use armour all but the multi purpose cleaner. Tiaga lang sa mga libag na sumisingit sa gaps. pagkatapos rinse na using a sponge to obsorb the dirt and excess liquid. Good as new and no need to put anything else.

Maintaining the dashboard is one of the more often if not the least that is given importance so whatever the method you have started (i.e. putting Armor All, etc.) should be done with consistency.
Another way to keep it from having cracks is putting the right tint on the windshield to prevent direct UV light from getting into the dashboard.
