A few weeks ago, I netted another culture|garage package at my front door.  Inside was Turtle Wax’s new interior cleaner.  I was quite skeptical at first and backburnered trying it out, because I HATE products like Armor All.  I don’t like having a greasy interior.  After trying this, I am rather surprised.  It comes with a microfiber towel for application.  Goes on nice and easy, smells great.  Best of all, no greasy dash, just nice and clean.  What’s further surprised me is that in over one week there is still no dust accumulation on my dash.  Are there better dash cleaning products?  Maybe.  Would this keep the average person’s dash and wallet happy?  Most certainly.  Two thumbs up here.  There’s a nice package for sale here.

Will also bested Morgan Lucas and Cory McClenethan’s efforts, knocking them out in the rounds proceeding the final. Read the rest of this entry »
