bttt.

I have tried many products but it still looks faded.

How about 'Back to Black' exterior trim restorer, should this work?

Above product I'm sure would be ideal for a dash that is in good nick but mine is badly faded and needs some stronger stuff!!

I'll take a pic.

For Gods sake don't use anything that makes it shiny! There's nothing worse than a shiny dash!!

I don't want it shiny as that will reflect all my interior neons onto the windscreen.

I tried pic but it was way to sunny up here this afternoon.

The dash has gone from it's usual mat grey/black to an almost sand colour right across the top. It does not look good at all. Silicon interior stuff brings it back a little but fades quickly again.
