interior care
Whats the best stuff to use on the dash and seats? I've heard not to use armour-all on the dash because of possible cracking later on. Also whats best on the glass. I've noticed a smokers type haze a few days after using windex type cleaners on the inside, I'm not a smoker. Thanks

For the dash, I just wipe it down with a wet rag or a mini California duster. Seats I use Zaino leather treatment. Glass I use Stoners Invisable Glass.

Dash: I wipe it down weekly with a damp microfiber towel.
Monthly (or whenever I feel like it) I wipe it 303 Aerospace Protectant or Meguiar's Natural Shine using a microfiber towel. It deepens the black without adding bling.
Seats: I like Lexol. I use both their cleaner and their conditioner.
Glass: I use Stoner's Invisible Glass with cotton/polyester microfiber towel.

Lexol on the leather and 303 Aerospace Protectant on everything else when detailing. The exception is the top surface of the dash where I use only a damp cloth to minimize any windshield reflections. Damp microfiber rag once a week or as needed for the entire interior between detailing. The hazing on the windshield is caused by the outgassing of the new interior materials. It will get better with time. Stoners on the glass works wonders.

I use Pledge for all vinyl parts including the dash and doors panel. Has a very natural look. Not greasey, not shiny and does not attract dust. Use it on tires and under hood on rubber hoses also. Spray on a towel and wipe down. Get the big can at Home Depot or Lowe's. Cheap, too.
