This is a great site for any resto tips.  http://ridesthatrock.com/html/plastics.html

The SMS products work very well. Not sure they sell them in a kit but you can buy them seperately.

if the panels are real "chalky" you are just wasting time and money.

I bought the "Fade Away" kit from www.justdashes.com  I'm very pleased with the results. A little expensive but it's a nice kit.  Comes with everything you need and clear instructions.  I did nine 4 years ago and just did the rear panels again while I had them out last week.  I would say the kit gives you enough to do 2 complete interiors.

Yes you can Armor all them.  I prefer 303 Protectant.  Non greasy and is not a dust magnet.

Do a search on this site for Just Dashes.  I've posted many times singing the praises of the work Just Dashes did on my door panels.  Or check the Interiors page of my website at www.mikes73.com.
