Pledge may not have silicones. I have been using it for 40 years on fabric airplanes, with no problems recoating.
cheaper stuff in similar bottles does have silicone - be careful.
My ancient Mustang convertible dash pad is 53 years old - no cracks after 40 years of routine Pledge applications.
The stuff is expensive, and only available in spray cans which run out of air before they run out of product. Still . . .

I had a trick when I toured with rock bands as a guitar tech. I would clean each guitar at the end of the show right away. Knowing that at anytime pictures could be taken or the guitars could be played again, I'd shine them with Pledge. It didn't build up ugly like some other stuff, and seem to be the best for quick shine and some level of protection.

Ooops, Did I share my secret???
