Wrongo. Armor All, like other 'protectants', have a plasticizer in them, which renews the plasticity of your interior pieces, keeping them flexible and looking new and shiny. Without this, your interior will start to dry out and crack when it flexes too much. Learned this in materials science class, finally I get to apply some of that crap.

I use Meguires vinyl and plastic protectant stuff. It doesn't go on very shiny but you can easily add more shine with another coat. Works wonders and isn't too greasy.

So since your still in class, I assume your not old enough to have years of real world experiences. Have you used Amorall on any vehicle, for long periods of time, say a couple of years and seen the results? If you have, and my guess is not, then you would not be promoting a product like Armorall.

As far as I know, armor all works. Never heard any bad things about it that say its a bad product. Its the same as every other vinyl and plastic protectant out there.

Oh, and you still haven't provided any proof that it doesn't work. Pretty sure my professor would know what hes talking about. He does have that doctorate thing.

At any rate, I said I use Meguires so I couldn't care less about armor all.
