I been using armor-all cleaning wipes. These do not leave any residue and they work pretty well. I tried a cleaner conditioner product that left a glossy look like you would get with armor-all and I did not like that look. It did keep the scuff marks off where the toe of my shoes hits the door when I get in and out.

I was told that Armor-All releases vapors that could fog up your windows {which I noticed, actually}, so I stopped using them.

I have the ebony interior and use a wet diaper.
It's soft and doesn't "SCRATCH." It does leave lint, but I dust it off with a inside CalDuster.
I would never use anything like Armoral. It attracts dust and dirt and puts a slight shine to it. That means constantly having to keep it shiny...a pain!
The only bad thing about the ebony interior is that is scuffs and shows everything so darn easily..."BUT" I wouldn't trade the car for the world!

The armorall cleaning wipes do not have the shiny stuff, strictly a cleaning product. They leave no residue. I found that when I cleaned the soft touch vinyl with a diaper that after I was done the little fingerprints on the door would still be there.

That Stoner Trim Shine sounds like something I want to try. BUT I wouldn't use it on a dash, too shiny and too much residue. Residue is bad, bad, bad, because it eventually evaporates and ends up on the windshield AND can start an out-gassing process on your dash. Which in turn causes brittleness and cracking.
