Dashboard Squeaks: What to spray in there?

May 08, 2004 5 Replies

It's the areas where two sections of dashboard meet.



It's become real squeakfest - but I don't want to just start spraying this and that in there...could be a mess if the first few don't work and then whatever's there might mask the effect of whatever does work.



Two candidates that come to mind are non-oil-based silicone and 303.



Anybody had success with anything?


Spray-type graphite lubricant. It applies wet, penetrates then dries so no mess.

sheets of teflon are the only real solution

I did something like that with my glove box door. Dissasembled it, wraped the parts in sheeting from a polyethelene trash bag. It worked.

When doing the Teflon thing, I'm guessing the dashboard has to come apart. ?

Then, do you just lay the sheets on and reassemble, or do you use something to temporarily bond them in place during assembly?
