Dashboard, Console and Trim Cleaning

Dust, film, and fingerprints removed from the surfaces you touch and look at most.

The dash and console collect an oily film from skin contact, hand cream, food, and airborne dust. Wiping with a dry cloth pushes it around; wiping with the wrong product leaves streaks and glare.

Screens and glossy piano-black trim need their own approach, since both scratch easily and show every mark.

What gets addressed

  • Dash top, instrument hood, and A-pillar trim
  • Vent slats and the surrounds that trap dust
  • Center console, shifter area, cup holders, and switch panels
  • Steering wheel, stalks, and door pulls — the highest-contact surfaces in the car
  • Screens cleaned with dedicated media, no ammonia

Matte, not shiny

Glossy dressings reflect into the windshield and create glare while driving into fog or low sun. We finish these surfaces clean and matte so they look like new plastic rather than coated plastic.

Frequently asked questions

Can you remove haze from the inside of the windshield?

Yes. Interior glass film is largely off-gassing from the dash, so we clean the dash first and then the glass, in that order.

Are your products safe on touchscreens?

Yes, we use ammonia-free products and dedicated microfiber on displays.
