Dashboard Glare

(1/1)

roscoe:
Shiny dashboard and low winter sun means lots of glare on my Freelander windscreen. This is not conducive to safe driving!!.

Can anyone recommend anything to combat this?

carbore:
OK,

Clean it off with a foam cleaner to remove any silicon dash shine.  This can build up over the years (even if you never used it), aslo had grease etc is a bit shiny.

Clean the windscreen inside (meths is best) , this will help

Use some of the "non slip dash matting" that keeys phones/coins in place, as a cover.

Use sticky velcro to keep some felt or similar over the shiny bits

Big solution would be to get the dash sprayed with "flocking" like a rally car dash.

Only drive at night (sorry)
Drive in the daytime, but keep your eyes closed (Very Sorry)
Drive everywhere in reverse (Really Really Sorry)

I find a solution of dilute accetic acid (vinegar & water) does the trick of cutting through the traffic film on the glass without smearing

roscoe:
I shall give these a go, many thanks

Evilgoat:
There is a MATT finish armourall too that may help.
