I just use a damp microfiber cloth. Takes that white stuff off, makes them look new again and doesn't cause a shine that you'll see reflected in the windshield.

Mine had that white powder looking residue on the black interior. Other than a quick vacuum a few times, never cleaned it in the 30 months since new. Finally had to do something and just water and a microfiber took care of it.

Used it this weekend in place of Aerospace 303 which I was out of and I am very pleased with the results. Plus no need to order online.

I sometimes just dampen a cloth with glass cleaner, and at other times just use a cloth dampened with water. Just don't use ArmorAll. If you use the glossy one you won't be able to see out the windshield on a sunny day.

Ditto. Tough to find however. Look online. Some Ace Hardware stores and marine supply stores carry it.

Low gloss and it cures the white oxidation on black vinyl for months. Friends love it for their boats to extend the life of their tops and seats.

Exactly! Leaves the interior just the way it came from the factory and cleans very well. I use nothing else.
