Default What's a good way to remove armor all?

I've been armor-alling my car for awhile now, and I'm trying to get rid of it, but when I wash it off with soap and water, certain places have a dried out look to them. Like the panels where the window controls are is all whitish, and in my dash, the plastic over my tac, is whitish. Is there something I can use to get rid of this?

Why do you want to get rid of armor all? Its liek car wax for the interior of your car.

Armor All has silicones in it which make some dashboards crack. Plus it looks cheap.

I'd try simple green and clean it using a rag. The less you dilute it, the more cleaning power it'll have.

I thought Armor All prevented cracking.

If you really want it off you can use a silicone based lubricant to disolve it, or just wait until it wears off.

Unless he got armour all on the clear plastic over the dash and A/C controls your pretty well scewed. There is a plastic polish that removes the white cum stains on the clear plastic, its alot of work to get the cum stains off

I used this stuff made by (Blue Magic) Plastic and plexiglass cleaner.

I recommend removing the speedo cluster if you use it as it get in all the nooks and crannies around the bezel. Its alot of work to get the etch marks off. Armour All etches the speedo cluster turning it white. Someone at one time got a few drops on my BMW cluster leaving white marks which is why I call them cum stains. If you use this stuff the speedo looks good as new.

I think I bought this stuff at Autozone
