Vinyl Dashboard Dressing (Poorboys, Megs, Eagle One or Moms)

i need your feedback... right now, since my car is still new (4mos), i'm just wiping it with damp MF. i need a protectant. I don't want a shiny dash, just want to have a matte clean look. These are the only products available here locally (Philippines):

1. Poorboys Natural Look
2. Meguiars NXT Generation Tech Protectant
3. Eagle One Protectant
4. Mothers Protectant

Other products available here: Polyglaze, Armorall

thanks in advance!

Scratch that one off your list....the dash will shine like a mofo.

The only one I have treid that you have listed is PB NL is gives a great matte look, after application you can wipe it down to tone it down a bit (wait about 10min before wiping down).

Definitely don't want the NXT... I WOULD recommend the Poorboy's NL. It's my favorite interior dressing. It will shine a little if you don't buff it dry, but it's not greasy looking. If you buff it, it will look matte. It has a little bit of a strong smell at first, but wears away after a couple of days. The smell is very nice, though.

I've tried all of them except for the Mothers. Poorboys wins easily, an excellent product.

Can you get 1Z in Pinoy land?
I use their vinyl and Rubber spray exclusively. I top it with FK 425 to keep the dust off when I lower the top, its a convertible. Best combination I've used you wouldn't believe my car is six years old now.

I can't get Poor Boys NL to look even when I apply it. I get some spots darker then others.

I like the NL. The NXT tech is too greasy and shiny. The only beef I have with NL is that it doesn't seem to last very long, but when I want durability I use Trim Restore on the interior.
