How do I clean the dashboard of my car at home?

What's the best way to clean my dashboard? My car's dash is dark-colored, so dust and dirt are really visible.

“To clean the dashboard of your car at home, start by vacuuming up the dust and dirt with a soft brush attachment.
After that, apply an all-purpose cleaner to a rag and wipe down the dashboard.
For caked-on gunk or stains, scrub with a soft brush. Then, rinse the area clean with a damp rag and let the dash air dry.
Finally, apply a protectant such as Armor All.
