I've had good luck with Meguiars Vinyl Care product. A nice understated shine. I tried the Lexol Vinyl care and hated it. It left more ghosts behind than Casper!

Gives a natural look and it last a long time! Best stuff I've found for the interior....

I switched over to 303 Aerospace Protectant about a year ago and wouldn't use anything else now. I was also told by our hot tub dealer to treat the hot tub cover every 6 months with 303 as well as it protects against breakdown and UV rays...

I tried it on my tires and it leaves them looking nice and black without the shiny look and nothing comes off to coat around the wheels when driving. I even tried it on my seats last week and it seems to work quite well (it is recommended for leather also).

Another vote for Meguiar's Quik Interior Detailer. It has a fresh, clean, subtle scent, leaves NO shine, cleans and protects, and can be used on leather, plastic, nav screen, pretty much everything but carpet.

Armour all has a low gloss product.......Its pretty matte in finish.
Typically, warm water & basic car soap works well, followed by lots of toweling.

303 Aerospace is the most popular here on the forum. One drawback it smells really bad. I use Meguiar's Interior Detailer with great results. It does not leave a shiny surface or streaks. Try several that have been suggested here and just see what you think.

Great stuff for my Explorer, but come on guys, it makes it look shiney. I like McQuires quick detail spray. That keeps it stock.

That's what I've been using as well. CLeans nicely and doesn't leave that fake glossy shine like Armorall and others.
