lol, how could you "just find it today"??? Sounds like maybe you are the culprit? J/k I kid, I kid!

Take some q'tips and diluted simple green (4 parts water 1 part simple green) dip the q-tip in it and do a couple of test spots. I've used Simple green on paint, carpet, tile, grout, and leather. It's fine. Just follow up with something to protect the dash and other components because simple green will strip whatever protectant is currently on there.

you can also use ZEP citrus they sell it at home depot or walmart and its like $12 a gallon. Dillute it up to around 4:1 and it will be another powerful effective cleaner that is low cost.

Store. Supermarket, drug store, hardware store. One or more of those type stores should have it. Remember, you usually dilute it, so you don't need to buy the gallon size.

sorry that still doesnt make me think its a good place. it sounds like a high volume place they just spin cars out of..Quantity over quality.
Let me give you an example..My neighbors car "detailed" by a body shop by their detailer





after I fixed it for him
