Default What do you use to Detail Interior

What do you guys use to detail the interior, specifically, the Dash, Doors, and Center Console.

It seems like a lot of guys don't use Armour All. My dash is clean and dry with absolutely no dust, I'd like to keep it that way.

Armour is fine for the tires but for the dash,door,etc. I use Meguiar's #40 cleaner/conditioner.

I just got my shipment of Adams, looking forward to using the products. Check out the Car Care board as well as there's a TON of info on detailing.

When I first started using it, it was hard to find. Now I see it everywhere.

Hi Hysteria -

Kinda like asking what flavor of ice cream you like......but....

I use a small california duster, and Meguires quick interior detailer to keep the dash and doors etc dust free.

Once in a while I use Mequires Shine on the dash and vinyl door panels etc to keep them looking good.

This method will prevent that "greasy kid look" of Armour All.

On leather seats, I like either Harley Davidson Leather Conditioner, or Lexol wipes.

You can buy the Lexol wipes at any Tractor Supply etc where they sell tack (it is used on saddles etc.).

best regards -

Lemon Pledge. It is cheap, leaves a nice satin finish, does not attract dust, and smells good.
