Hi John,
So are you saying do this on the dash ? I did not think it was actually
rubber ?
Or are you referring to "rubber" in loose terms ?
Spray the rubber down with the Liquid Wrench sikicone first. Gently wipe
off. Next apply silicone grease. Wipe off gently. This will restore and
preserve the rubber.
