Interioir/ Dash Cleaning

I was wondering if there was anything particular that people use to clean there interioir?

I bought a usual interior cleaning spray from Halfords but when used onthe dash or door cards, it makes them very dull and seems to make them patchy and discoloured

Any help would or advice would be great

Thanks

Ade

Microfibre cloth and clean water TBH - find that almost anything else I add to plastics, is wither too polished looking or patchy . . . .

Spent ages the other week getting into all the little bits that get filled up with dust and muck - still never got round to cleaning the outside Laughing

Leather etc is another ball game - currently there is a good thread running Thumbs Up

Poorboys natural look dressing is very good, and smells lovely too.
Will clean leather as well.

go to a trade valeting supplier, ask for multi purpose cleaner, cleans without leaving a shiney/stickly residue,

the on dash rubber mats/cup holder inserts clean with multipurpose and a nail/tooth brush, then rinse under tap & allow to dry,

i find an air line is invaluable for getting dust out of all nooks and crannies!

baby wipes..... if they're good enough for a baby's butt, then they're good enough for the dash, computer keyboard, tv etc etc...

I have been using Autglym Vinyl & rubber care on dash and door cards and looks well for it.
But as mentioned above JKP is the man to ask.

It is my choice for interiors too! It cleans and protects in a single pass and smells very good! It's a must have!

Damp chamois for the big bits and a paintbrush for the hard to reach places. I use Yaksmuck for the leather. Takes ages to soak in and very lumpy, but gives that authentic musky smell. Cool

Sorry, did I say Yaksmuck? I meant Bullbatter Embarassed

No, there I go again. Gliptone. That's the stuff Thumbs Up
