2018 E300 Wood Dash Veneer
Recently bought a 2018 E300 for the spouse unit. It's a truly lovely and well-kept, low mileage, one owner, example. The wife deserved it after 22 years of hammy-downs and family haulers.
My question is about the wood trim on the dash. It's in good shape, looks fine but is just a slight bit more rough to the touch than the center console and door cards. If it were a piece of furniture in my house, I'd hit it with some Howard's Feed-n-Wax. But from everything I've read, MB says this is a bad idea and only to use a microfiber cloth. However, the dash grain is raised just enough that it catches on the cloth.
The wood really seems like it's dry and wants to be nourished with something... the question is what product? Any advice?
