Best glass cleaner and Q about Tuff Stuff

Dealer used some crap on my windows and dash before they brough my truck out. I'm guessing they used armor all on dash (it has that unnatural shiney look). In the morning, when it's cold, I get funny haze on windows that I'd like to get rid off. I'd also like the dash and steering wheel to not shine, but just look clean.
I read that a lot of you use Tuff Stuff on interior. Is it safe to use on dash and the aluminum finish in Sport Edition?
Should I try anything special to remove whatever they used on my windows or plain glass cleaner will do?
Thanks

Not sure what they used on your windows, but perhaps good glass cleaner will fix that.

Tuff Stuff will give you back the ala natural look of your vinyl.
It is safe for the alloy dash too.

That is all I use in my rig is the TS.
I am a hater of Armor All, and have not used it for over 10 years.
It causes premature aging and cracking of vinyl, and turns tires brown after awhile.

Here's the rig with just the TS put on the vinyl.

Armor All is a dust magnet too.
Some have had good luck with that 303 Protectant spray if you want to put a dressing back on your dash.

But really I find the TS to be enough, and my rig is outdoors all the time in the sun, and this protects if good enough.

I'll try TF. My stealer actually has the spray bottles in the parts store. Thanks

The only foaming tough stuff I can find is the foam kind. The foam makes it kind of hard to clean the dash and other interior trim.

I could only find the foam stuff, but I used it anyway. Just spray it on a rag and wipe it in. It takes a few times to do it, just do it maybe three times and it works great. :fireman:
