I dont like Armor-All, it has an odor and attracts dust. I prefer 303 on the vinyl, Lexol on the leather and actually like Ragg Topp (Vinyl) cleaner and protectant for the top.

An alternative worth considering is Vinylex, made by the same people who make Lexol leather products. Has a very similar look to 303, is easier to find, and costs less. I can find it at AutoZone-type stores for about $10/bottle.

It's not even about Armorall being reformulated. Last time I dropped by Autozone by the Projects I saw bunch of Civics owners using them and putting that stuff on their dash board.

That Dashboard looked as greasy as Teenagers forehead who works at MacDonalds.

Meguiar Gold Class Rich Leather are good for: S2000 seats, and how about the door panels?
IIRC the door cards are leather but the rest of the door panel isn't.

i found it tricky to apply 303 the first time I used it on the dash board cause it seemed to dry unevenly,
now I apply the 303 with a 100% cotton wax applicator and than buff it out with the other side of the applicator immediately, works great and looks mint, love it.

Have you tried the RaggTopp on the vinyl interior? I would assume it should work similarly to 303 (nothing "magical" about the softtop vs other vinyl, right?)... I have a bottle of RaggTopp, so wondering if I need 303 as well for inside?

Dashboard is Vynil and not leather. Meaning use 303 or Meguiar's Plastic, Vynil & Rubber protectant. But do not use leather protectants/cleaners on it.
Any particular reason why you shouldn't use the Meguiar's leather wipes on the vinyl and plastic?
